walked out of class today at 12pm to join the student protests. it was my first time being involved in something like that but i'm glad that i went. i learned a lot about the current crisis that has been unfolding in front of me recently. I think that a major problem is the lack of information among students. I had no idea that a lot of the mentioned things were taking place so in order to increase effectiveness there needs to be an increase in awareness.
today in bible study we discussed a passage in james 2 about faith without works. and it got me thinking of the life that i live. a little off topic from what we were discussing but my mind continued to wander. do my current actions reflect my love for God? or even show His importance in my life? i would LOVE to say yes but looking back on my life i'm not confident enough to reply with yes. i hold grudges against people that do wrong to me even though i know in my heart that God forgives me for my sins when i ask for it. i drink. not to the point of being drunk. but people don't know my state of mind when i drink. they just smell the alcohol in my breath and see the pink in my cheeks. sometimes i'm not the friendliest person to some people. i favor some. i dislike others. but i wasn't always like this. in high school i feel like i was completely different. something about college changed me into this stranger. but i still have a lot of love for people. it's just i need to rearrange my priorities. i need to start living a life of love. that reflects Jesus who is alive in me. not just to the people i like. but extend it to the people i don't like. im not naive enough to believe that i'll be a changed person when i wake up tomorrow morning. but i am willing to take steps in the right direction. i know that change doesnt happen by my own strength alone either. only through His perfect timing and through the strength He GIVES me.
