Day 71

Recently, I've been doing well in every class in school except for economics.  For some reason I just wasn't understanding.  I'd study hard, go to class, and do my best on the test, but I just couldn't perform.  So just before this last test I was seriously considering withdrawing from the class.  It was a big decision for me because I need to take econ for my major, but I want to get a good grade in the class.  I called my parents and my friends for advice on what to do and then I prayed to Heavenly Father.  At the time I got no clear answer, but I decided that I would take the test and if I got an A on it, I would not withdraw.  Well it turns out that I got a B+, which was quite shocking.  I couldn't believe I had done so well, while at the same time I couldn't decide whether or not to continue in the course.  However, after a bit of pondering I had an overwhelming confirmation that staying in the class would be the best thing for me.  The confirmation came in a calm feeling that came over me despite all the anxiety I'd had over the decision.  It was nice to know that I was doing the right thing.

I'm so grateful to have a Heavenly Father who loves me.  A Heavenly Father who would never lead me astray and who is always there to guide, counsel, and protect me.  I don't know what I'd do without his help.
