Trusting in God

As this week has played out and I have made an extra effort to keep up with reading the scriptures and saying my prayers, I have realized some amazing things. In past weeks, my Calculus tests have been getting the better of me. As I stress over how I can prepare for them, I've found that my scripture reading and daily prayer has really slacked. With this realization, I decided that this week I would take the time out of my studying to make sure that I read the scriptures and pray. As I have made the extra effort to do so, I know that it has become easier for me to do well throughout this week. It seems as if I have had more time than I usually would. As I prepared for this next Calculus test, I also promised myself that I would say a prayer before taking it. After saying a prayer, I started the test, believing that I would be able to remember all of the things that I had studied. I'm pleased to say that I have seen a miracle in my life. I remembered everything and will easily get the grade that I need on this test. After all is said and done though, it was not because of me that I have done well on this test. I may have put in the effort to study for it, but God is ultimately the one that has made it possible for me to do well. From this experience, I have learned my lesson that I must trust in God and do my best to not forget him, no matter how stressful my week may become.
