Okay so thats a strange statement.
I do like change, but I don't think my mind changes quickly enough.
It has been hard going to school and I have not wanted to the first week.
And on Monday the second week, I didn't do any work.
I was so reluctant to do any work.
I wasted the afternoon away doing no work, being lonely, and wasting time watching TV.
I eventually did something productive and figured out what food to bring bible study.
I headed over to bible study and the plan for the evening was to have good fellowship and for Daniel and I to share about our mission trips this summer.
We ate food and hung out. I watched them play a game, there was many people there. We shared and it was a great time. Daniel said something about how the people in Indonesia value school so much.
After listening and sharing, I began thinking.
Talking about Haiti let me remember the experience and the joy I had serving.
I had a realization that this stuff about school needed to stop.
I just needed to shut up and stop complaining.
I thought about Philippians 2 and shining like stars.
"Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe."
I want to shine like stars.
I chose to just go to school and just do it the rest of the week.
I chose to be joyful.
I found this verse.
"Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love,
that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days."
Psalms 90:4
And I remembered this. This is what keeps me in school.
And this song I've been listening.
It is well with my soul.
Truly.
So be it.
Reality: I am a sinner in need of a Savior.
