First day of college

You know those weeks where nothing significantly wrong happens but a bunch of "mini trials" just kind of overwhelm you all the sudden? Ya that's happened a few times this past week. I just feel overwhelmed, under-qualified, and discouraged. But my point in telling you this, is that it gets better! Every single time I have one of those rough days or hours, it gets so much better! The blessings for big trials and answers to significant prayers will not be as immediate, but tender mercies have continually been given to me after hard days. It is proof to me that Heavenly Father is aware of me and that He is eager to bless, comfort, and teach me. I am so grateful for a Father in Heaven that loves me enough to give me hard times and the power to help me through. I am grateful for a Savior that gives me comfort and confidence to keep going, to have hope, and faith in good things to come. I am grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ that helps me have joy in the journey, that helps me keep at eternal perspective. I am grateful that I can have "weak things become strong" and that my trials "shall be consecrated for [my] gain."
Knowing that everything will be okay in the end, and that trials are for my good help me get through them with determination, courage, and even joy!
