Christmas Break: the hope that has kept us alive through our finals
Its here. You’re home.
I’m sitting in my chair in my den. In my house. That I was literally born in. In Georgetown, America. With the family that I love. And the friends that have known me since kindergarten. And the traffic circle that I risk my life on. And the church Ive always gone to.
And I love it. I love being home because it’s comfortable.
I get to do whatever I want: I can sleep the whole day away. Or go to a friends house. Or watch my parents Netflix that I have dearly missed.
If you know me at all, you’ve probably heard me make reference to #suckitsantafe, the name given to the event and people involved in the ski trip to Santa Fe, New Mexico last spring break with Indiana Baptist Church. I went on this trip with some of my dearest friends, Haley, Alexandra, Dusty, StephGuth, Brandon, Patric and Ashley. I was excited to be on this trip because 1) lets be honest, these people are super cool and 2) I wanted to show off my love for snowboarding.
Lying is a sin.
“You should not give false testimony against your neighbor” Exodus 20:16
Lying is deceptive.
Deception is a tool of the Enemy.
John 8 even calls Satan the father of lies.
Yet, we lie all the time.
I want to love God.
I want to attempt to love God as much as he loves us.
And how can I love God as much as he loves us, if I don’t know HOW he loves us?
I want to learn the How of God. I desire to KNOW God.
I have missed writing more than I thought. The freedom it allows me, to share my heart, is indescribable. I hope that as my heart is shared, the Lord would move within you that are reading this. How this is going to look (whether monthly writings, or weekly, maybe daily) I am not sure. I am blessed though to be given the opportunity to share what the Lord is doing in my life. Thank you for taking the time out to read this.
