He answers.

The semester is nearing its end and for me, that always equals stress.  This semester is much different than others.  It's my LAST undergrad semester. Where did the time go?  I have really enjoyed this semester in preparation for Physical Therapy school.  I could not have asked for a better Internship.  For this Internship, I am required to write a report and in the syllabus it lists several things that I need to include.  Last week I noticed that I was missing one of the papers.  I searched high and low and couldn't find anything.  I basically had decided I would redo it when I noticed in the syllabus that it also mentions that we weren't allowed to redo anything because that would count as 'academic dishonesty.'  I immediately began to stress.  What was I going to do?  It began to consume my thoughts for three days.  I retraced my steps with no hope in sight.

Then, yesterday happened.  It was lunch break from my Internship and I was cruising with my windows down in the blistery summer heat.  I began to stress again and my immediate thought was to pray.  Once this thought came into my head, I quickly dismissed it because I had been really lousy at my personal prayers lately and didn't want God to feel like I was using Him.  I sat in my car thinking about it for a few minutes when I finally gave in and said  genuine prayer in my heart.  Only a minute passed or so when I felt prompted to open up my glove box.  I opened the box to find the exact paper I had been looking for, folded neatly on top of all of the papers shoved in there.  I hardly ever put papers in that box, so that would be the last place I would have looked.

God is merciful and kind.  He doesn't care about your faults, but only about the progress you are making. He doesn't make you feel shameful for not talking to Him.  Instead, He opens His arms a little bit wider, waiting for you to come to Him.  God loves me, a spirit of infinite worth, and because I know of this truth, I know He loves everyone.  God answers prayers, no matter great or small.
