"Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths."
As for stressing... Wait 'til you start uni! ;)
Lord, You said, "ASK, and it WILL be GIVEN to you; SEEK, and you will find; KNOCK, and it will be opened to you." So, here I am, asking and on the gate of your mercy I am knocking. So, do not refuse my prayer, for you have said: "whoever comes to me I will never drive away." Answer me, through the intercession of the Holy Virgin and all Your angels. Amen"
-Pope Cyril
