I get all of that, to one degree or another. There’s a quote you and @bama-rose made me think of:

“If you think you’ve blown God’s plan for your life, rest in this: You, my beautiful friend, are not that powerful.” – Lisa Bever

But still, we don’t want to use His sovereignty as an excuse to just blow things off and do whatever; we should definitely continue to seek His will first, and I understand how difficult that can seem and how hard it can be to know for sure whether what you think is His will really is, sometimes. I’ve been there. 😛 I’ll definitely be praying for you both.

I’d appreciate prayer, as well. Firstly, I’d appreciate prayer that I’d be able to get back to making God a priority and making an effort to spend time with Him and dedicate what I’m doing to Him even when it feels like it’s not making a difference. As sort of an extension of that, please pray that I’d be able to take a break from my writing and sort of take a deep breath and see what He wants me to work on next and that I’d have the discipline and the drive to work on it. And I’d appreciate prayer that my recently-launched book would sell well but that I’d not get caught up in reviews or sales or even my own glory in giving people something to enjoy, but that I’d give the glory to God.

And on a different note, I’d be thankful for prayers that I’d have the courage to start up conversations with people in the groups I’m part of and that I’d be able to build strong, healthy, long-lasting relationships, particularly over the rest of this school year and the next before I graduate and lose my opportunity to talk to a lot of the people I’d like to get to know.
