There are days, like today, I'm amazed by my faith.
Simply, simply amazed.
I make it an effort to write a letter when I'm fired up about God, school and life.
So in times like this,
In times of stress,
In times of argh-ness,
I read the letter.
And reading the letter I wrote in the beginning of this term,
Has really cheered me up.
Some of the stuff I wrote.
This is how I stay faithful,
Despite life,
Despite the devil,
Despite everything else.
I quote myself:
"It's time to pick myself up;
It's time to cling onto God;
It's time to TAKE ON THE DEVIL.
I know this will be a hard term,
Possibly the hardest term in my life thus far.
It's gonna be hard to continue counting on God even in my circumstances,
It's going to be hard to continue praying daily...
It's going to be hard to do my work and remain faithful.
But these things are HARD,
Not IMPOSSIBLE.
For truly with God, nothing is impossible.
In this term, I am
Determined-determined-determined
Not to crumble and fall under the devil!!"
And then I go on to talk about lots of stuff, and quotes and all, but that captures the gist of it.
How.
Do.
I.
Do.
That?
I don't know.
I like the last sentence of my letter too! (Or last two.) "Amazing amazing amazing, that God is. He's simply amazing above all things."
