Prayer about college admissions
The college application and decision process can be a very challenging, stressful time both for upperclassmen in high school and transfer students. I’m a senior in high school, and I’ve been dealing with a lot of the issues that come with the college process. There seems to be a lot of anxiety for seniors, because of the amount of work it takes to fill out applications and write essays and stress from not knowing which college to pick. I’ve also seen my peers struggling with depression from not getting admitted to the college of their choice. I’m so grateful I’ve had Christian Science through this process, because it’s helped me know how to pray about all of these concerns.
For me, the big issue has been trying to figure out where I belong. Going into the process, I didn’t prepare myself metaphysically by praying or trying to establish a spiritual basis for what I was doing. Bad idea. I quickly found myself under a cloud of stress.
I knew the moment I shifted my focus to God, the stress and fear would lift.
