I think about when my daughter sent out her applications for college.

She was going to go to a university and so it was the end of her senior year.

She began to send out applications to see where she would go to school.

I remember they said it was going to take a few months to get those applications back

and see which school she was accepted in.

But you know those months just seemed to take even longer.

It seemed like it was taking forever to get a response back from the school.

And she was anticipating what school she would go to.

All of her friends were going through the same process.

They were waiting for their answers.

And it's kind of funny because as they were waiting,

it was as if they had more questions in their heart and mind.

They were like, well, what if I get accepted to this school?

Who will I live with?

Well, if I get accepted to that school, where will I live?

You see, they were anticipating all this.

And it was just formulating more doubt and more questions in their mind about this situation.

You see, they were waiting and it was making them weary.

Have you ever waited and been frustrated?

Kind of like my daughter.

She couldn't make plans until she got this answer.

You see, it happens to all of us.
