Thinking

Wow its the the middle of the week and I've made it through most of my classes my last first week of school. Life changes so much and there are so many new choices and decisions to make that will affect the rest of your life. It seems a bit overwhelming at times with the things thrown at you every moment of your life and temptations that leave you yearnin for God to save you.

I find myself pretty much going through every emotion throughout my day. With classes that are tough and subject matters that dig deep into your soul and make one sit and ponder theological issues that cause deep thinking and meditation. I've always known I like to day dream. Sometimes at the most inopportune times (or most opportune when it comes to boring class lectures), but regardless there are moments in my day when I gotta just think. Think about all sorts of questions, doubts, fears and anxieties.

It is just so wonderful to serve a God who has perfect timing and love that abounds that calms fears and replaces them with rest and hope for the future.

I've been thinking a lot lately. Who I wanna be, what I want to be defined by, and how radical I want to be in my faith. These questions seem to almost marinate in my heart throughout these last couple of days and I guess months. What am I living for? Am I striving to be holy as Christ is? How am I contributing to society as a light in a dark place?

These questions loom as I investigate my life and search for the truth in a world covered in lies of one's identity and potential. Let's break free and search for Truth in Christ, for one can never be too hasty in such matters.
