| What If |
|
Since I have gotten back to school things have been stressful and hectic. This past weekend my roomie was gone, so I decided that it would be a good a time as any to finish unpacking. I have this thing about unpacking....I cannot do it until I am ready and realize that I am not going anywhere.
While unpacking I came across this sheet of paper back from when I gave my witness talk. I never really took the time to read the paper, because I was so nervous about giving my talk and then leading small group.
The paper talked about what if Jesus Christ was not our Savior. Seeing as how things had been going I decided to take some time to reflect and see what my answer was to what if...
So what if...I would not be were I am right now, not just as in sitting here in my college dorm room, but in my faith life, and physically. I am sure that if Jesus Christ was not my Savior I would have probably commited suicide. I would not have the friends I do today, or would I know the love from them and God. I have been so happy, but I have also had struggles. I have come to realize that a life of following God is not going to be easy, but it will be worth it in the end. If God brings me to it, He will bring me through it. I can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me...Phil 4:13. I have come to realize that I am stronger than I know, and that is my gift. It is a gift that I thank God for every day. I could not have asked for a better gift. I am truly blessed to know Him, even if I do not always see it.
I do have a problem though. One of my friends is not talking to me. I realize she is going through a hard time, and I want to be there for her. I hate seeing her hurting, I just hope she is talking to someone, because I know how disastrous it can get if you do not open up and shut down. You can only take so much before you fall.
