School has given me a great deal of stress these past few weeks.
I'm very interested to see how I will manage.
The beginning weeks were so crazy because I wasn't sure what classes I would get into.
Sometimes I feel I'm lost. I know where I am and what direction that I'm going but there is that wall blocking me.
I don't know how to get through, over, under, around that wall.
You know what kind of guy I don't like.
I don't like the guy that is oblivious to other guys.
The guy that insists on doing his own thing and not caring about other people.
That guy that says he has friends, but nothing in his life reflects that fact.
I don't like that guy.
Another reason I don't like that guy is because of the harm he's doing to himself.
Everyone needs someone and if he goes about life not caring about anyone it seems logical to me that he will have no one.

Without mercy.
Wow, I can't imagine life without it, because life would not remotely resemble the life that we live in right now. It is a scary thought that God, at any moment, could strike us to our death AND He would be just in doing so.
Our lives are proof that God is so merciful.
As Christians, as people that profess faith in such a God, and as people that have given trust in such a God and in His promise that when we die we are to rise up again and live with Him in Heaven....
Shouldn't we have the desire to try our best.
I'm not saying that we are to, in everything, succeed because everyone knows that it won't happen.
God looks at the motives and unlike other people we are trying to please or impress He knows what they are.

12 January 2009

When I was writing the date to this post that I finally figured out how to spell January.
I really never bothered to find out how it was really spelled. I just thought that I would write it and if I got it right, good, and if I got it wrong, oh well everyone knows what I mean.
I haven't posted in a long while and its not because I've been busy.
I just needed a break from blogging, a winter break. I was going to say I needed a Christmas break, but the last post was on Christmas....yeah...

I could be totally wrong about this or I could be spot on, but to expect everything to come out the way I would hope it to would be highly naive and irresponsible.
People disappoint and that is a fact that people have to realize and then quickly get over because that is what happens when broken people are forced to live together and interact. I know that I sound cynical, but if I were to say, "always hope for the best because it will always come" that would be untrue and I would be setting myself up for a lot of disappointment. When I say "best" I mean it in the way depraved people might mean when they say best. The best car or best house and whatever else people want best to mean.
God doesn't always give you what you want, but He did give His best and He will continue to do so 'til this world that we live in ceases to exist.
Hope in that and you will never be disappointed.
