| John 15:18,19
18"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.
19If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

| wow
Haven't written here in a while.
I highly doubt that anyone checks their sites anymore.
Pity.
It used to be so popular.
Dang Facebook and Myspace
This school years been interesting.
I struggle with relationships everyday.
God and I aren't that close anymore.
It's scary.
I worry.
Grades have never been my strong point.
Some things never change.
The economy sucks.
Jesus is coming soon.

| I'm immature
I'm stupid
I'm inconsiderate
I'm lazy
I'm perverted
I'm sick
I'm angry
I'm bored
I'm sad
I'm pathetic
I'm sinful
...yet God still forgives me.
He still forgives me because he loves me.
He still forgives me because he died for me.
Today, I realized this for the first time in my life.
Of course I had heard this message preached to me throughout my whole life.
But now it finally hit me.
I'm happy

| This past weekend, living springs hosted a spiritual retreat that I attended. At first, I told myself that I would just go in order to get better acquainted with all the church members. But I ended up with more than that.
Morning devotion have never really been a thing for me. Yet I find myself doing it now.
Praying before every meal had just been a forgotten memory ritual that was now obsolete. Yet I find myself doing it now.
I know it's small steps but I feel like I'm beginning to understand why God directed my life towards Andrews. All the inconveniences and hardship I had to endure in order to get here, make more sense now. I felt so astray yet God was never so close.
So yah, it was a pretty good retreat.
