What Time Is It?

Where am I? Why are the lights so bright? Why is everything I'm saying coming out as a question? 

I just looked at the clock. It's 6:30am and I've been up studying for an hour. For you who are reading this early in the morning, that means my alarm went off at 5:30am. Why, you ask? I'm trying to figure that out myself. I think it has something to do with the fact that I went to bed last night very confused with the accounting information that I'm going to be tested over in . . . 3 1/2 hours. 3 1/2 hours that include getting ready, eating breakfast, and taking another test. 

 Excuse me while I go to cry. 

Okay. I'm back. And here's what I know: God is always in control. I got to sleep for several hours last night. My mom loves me. My accounting professor doesn't hate me. I'm wearing a comfy sweatshirt.  Morning breath can be eradicated by brushing my teeth. Grades, while important, are not a life and death situation. I will get through these tests. My birthday is less than two months away. I have fingers to type. I have a brain that can think. I can wear cute shoes today. 

Ya see that? God is in control and He has put way too many blessings in my life for me to drown in anxiety over tests. Victory! I still need to study for my tests though. You know, God can bless studying too.

The lights in this study lounge are very bright. Too bright for this early in the morning. Just so you know.
