He Made A Way

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.

Proverbs 3:5–6

Some days, everything feels too much. The to-do lists grow longer, the responsibilities pile up, and our bodies cry out for rest. As a student juggling academics, work, ministry, and family responsibilities, I often feel like I’m running on empty—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Today was one of those days. I was dealing with dysmenorrhea that left me in pain, nauseated, and unable to focus. My midterm exam was right around the corner, and I felt completely unprepared. Sleep-deprived, tired, and overwhelmed, I whispered a prayer: “God, I leave everything to You. I haven’t studied enough, but I know You will see me through.”

And He did.

When it came time to take the exam, I felt peace in the middle of my anxiety. I kept praying, “Lord, give me wisdom. Let this be doable for me.” And when I saw the questions, I was amazed—it wasn’t as hard as I feared. I answered with confidence and finished knowing that it was not by my own strength, but by His grace.

To others, this might be a small thing. But to me, this was a personal miracle. God knew my limits. He saw my exhaustion. He understood my pain. And still, He made a way. He turned my weakness into strength and gave me favor where I felt unprepared.

This experience reminded me: God is not just the Lord of the big miracles—He’s also in the quiet moments of help, in the tests we didn’t think we’d pass, in the strength to keep going when we feel like giving up. He sees our unseen tears, hears our whispered prayers, and works behind the scenes in ways we don’t always realize until we look back and say, “That was God.”

So today, I thank Him. For carrying me. For showing up when I had nothing left to give. For making the impossible, possible.

Let this be a reminder: if you're feeling overwhelmed, weary, or unprepared—surrender it to Him. He is faithful. He is able. He will make a way.
