I'll be praying for you, don't stress about it - God has plans for you. and right now, His plans are for you to do whatever you are doing right now with the best of your ability. just live in the moment (it's hard, I know, but I've been working on making it more of a habit WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER <33)Sarah Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331141670473223853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646410502658254418.post-21073836586018513402017-11-05T19:00:27.414-05:002017-11-05T19:00:27.414-05:00<33<33Sarah Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331141670473223853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646410502658254418.post-7370269752974379542017-11-05T19:00:12.739-05:002017-11-05T19:00:12.739-05:00NO WAY that's so cool [and I wish I could mind...NO WAY that's so cool [and I wish I could mind-read IT WOULD BE SO COOL THO]<br /><br />thank you, Skylar!!

God gives us good things, and brings us through bad things. it would be so overwhelming to know it all before it happened. Truuutthh, and I think if life God easier, it probably isn't a good thing. God is always giving us new things to teach us, hard things, sometimes, but stuff He's using to preparing us for later.<br /><br />thanks, Kara <33Sarah Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331141670473223853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646410502658254418.post-53786486419815635382017-11-05T18:54:19.370-05:002017-11-05T18:54:19.370-05:00gosh girl srsly thank you <33 yeah, but I'm...gosh girl srsly thank you <33 yeah, but I'm pretty sure we've all felt it, and honestly, it's just a part of surrendering the controls to God. as kids, there isn't much to worry about, but as we grow up we feel like we need to know the plan, and we wanna rush rush rush and do things and go places, but that's not it. live in the moment that God has given us and live it like its your last. honestly a hard thing to do, but something I'm striving for <33Sarah Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331141670473223853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646410502658254418.post-66362784372155244072017-11-05T18:51:39.546-05:002017-11-05T18:51:39.546-05:00awawwee, totally girlie! it's true - just some...awawwee, totally girlie! it's true - just something that we have to face - that only God holds our tomorrows in His hands, and we shouldn't worry about them. and I feel like sometimes, it's always waiting for that tomorrow that will "hold better things" but today /was/ a tomorrow. trruutthh, and honestly, it's a good thing we don't know the whole plan ('cuz that'd totally be boring tho among other reasons xP XD) thanks for commenting, Ashley <33Sarah Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331141670473223853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646410502658254418.post-35202829884669935092017-11-05T18:47:44.502-05:002017-11-05T18:47:44.502-05:00ohh yeah, I totally remember feeling that.

And sometimes I ache to make a difference, but I don't know what I'm doing with my own life.
