I haven't slept worth anything this entire past week--and to be fair, I don't know if I will tonight--but like you said, it's almost like today something's just different. I'm happy, I'm content, I know that no matter how things go over the next few days that all will be well. It's not that I've not been able to sleep because I'm worried, but more like I am when I'm in the middle of a really great book or a really good video game. I just want to see what happens :)
I've honestly struggled with my faith for a few years. And to say that all of a sudden I've returned to the point of faith I was at a few years back wouldn't be right, but I've found almost a sort of...I don't know, catharsis? I've found myself just talking to God more like I would to a friend. More spontaneous prayer too. I don't know what going to happen, but I just have a feeling that I can't explain that it will all be alright.
For any Christian folks out there, have a listen to this:

It's a modern setting to a prayer that showed up 700 years ago, but no one knows who originally wrote it. It's honestly one of the most beautiful prayers I can think of. Let's all make sure to keep praying in these times :)
