A Big Mess of Things

             Last week, if you walked into my room, you’d see that it was a complete and total mess. School books and shoes were piled on top of each other in one corner of my room because school had just ended that day. My room probably looked like a tornado had struck it. After a few days of looking at that room, I really got tired of the mess. 

 Sounds sort of like my life, huh? I had started growing distant with God in the middle of last year because I just got to distracted with materialistic things of this world, my life slowly started to become a mess. A big one at that. I wasn’t focusing in school and it just seemed as though life was passing me by way too quickly. And it was. Instead of taking charge of my life, and setting my priorities straight, I delayed it as much as possible. Until everything just became too much to handle. And I prayed to God to help me and I started my doing my devotions again and I grew closer to God. And the closer and closer I got to him the less and less significant my problems became. When I laid out all my problems to God, he took them from my hand and fixed them. 

"Casting all your cares upon him; for he cares for you." ~ 1 Peter 5:7

So when I saw my room like that, I just couldn’t stand it and I decided to clean it up. And now it’s clean. :) Kind of like what I’m doing with my life right now. Fixing it up and getting rid of all the distractions.
