I am only 5 weeks into school and I feel like this semester should be over! Going to college at 16 and going to college at 22 are two totally different things. I feel like I use so much more brain power now, because I don't take what the teachers or students say as fact and since I am attending a very liberal school this leaves me with a massive headache by the end of the day. I have yet to find my niche at this school, which has made the transition rather difficult. Not being single and adding the fact that I've been married almost 4 years makes finding my niche THAT much harder! But God is faithful and for now I am doing my best to trust that His hands are all over the blue-print of my life. Blogging is not a priority in my life right now, but its a nice release every now and then.
"...my weakness is that I care too much..." I fear this will always be my weakness. I remember years ago, my youth pastor's wife told me to never lose my emotion, because it was what set me apart. Sometimes I feel it sets me too far apart and its to big of a burden to carry.
People aren't confused by the gospel, they're confused by us. Jesus is the only way to God, but we are not the only way to Jesus. This world doesn't need my tie, my hoodie, my denomination, or my translation of the Bible, they just need Jesus. We can be passionate about what we believe, but we can't strap ourselves to the gospel, because we're slowing it down. Jesus is going to save the world, but maybe the best thing we can do is just get out of the way. Casting Crowns
