Back to Blogging....

Summer was a crazy time...
So much to experience
So much to prove
Sound of my adventure

Beijing was quite an experience
Being in Asia is a lot of fun
Bearing in mind I had to experience so much
Brought me to putting God last place

Rest of the summer was to forget about school
Resting and hanging out
Relenting on my focus on God
Return to school

School is hectic
So is my walk
So are my priorities
So became my reason

I thought that I could go back
I thought it would be easy
Intent was strong
I couldn't follow through

Reading the Bible
Resting in God's grace
Reflecting on my past actions
Returning to God

I wanted my spiritual life like it was last semester
I wanted to put God back at the top of my list
I wanted to read the Bible daily again and pray every night
I wanted to do these things

So I thought these things
But it was a laundry list
Reasoning with God
So became my priority
I need to do this to get back in touch with God
Ready, set, go!
I failed

Church
Constantly, I think
Constantly, I do
Consequences are instability

Not I must
Not I think
Not I do
Not I

Receiving his love
Realizing I will never be able to do these things
Responding to the Word
Repenting and Thanking

I'm back...
At least I hope

Perspective

I watched Ratatouille a few days ago and what the critic said at the climax of the movie kind of hit me, hard. I need some perspective in my life.

My life in a nutshell...

For what reason?

Am I progressing?
How do I know?

East and West

Twin, am I the Twin?
I wish our connection was stronger
I can feel the connection but its weak
But don't worry Ill be over in a jiffy
Give me 1 month
And I'll solve this little riddle

Hey, remember your only 18?
Take it slow just like you said you would to me in the mountain
Remember it could be a test?
Was she the one who turned on that light?
Your Best Friend on the right, and her on the left
Signs, Signs, Signs
I had this phase, I was engulfed in trying to live a righteous life
I was only concentrating on Him
But then the temptations came so easily
I fell in a matter of mere seconds
I don't know
I'm just as confused as you as what to do in life
But what I do know is to take a step back
And take a breath
I say continue it as a friendship and build the relationships around you
My mistake first semester was chasing after someone
I lost others around me
But after I've fallen this far, now I can take that breath, that step backwards
And see what I've done and can learn from
Hmmmm seems there's no more Tsoju left in the bottle....
It's hard but try to resist it and focus on whats important right now
Just live life day by day
WWJD? - Yes but it's hard
That's why you surround yourself with good brothers and sisters so they can catch you when you fall
We're just a bunch of patients in a hospital of sinners
But we're recovering together
And learning together
Sounds like your former 1st quarter self found a way into a different form this time...
But I can't judge I'm not there
Maybe you've found someone to grow along with
Can she help you grow?
Can she help you learn?
Can she hurt you?
Can she show you the right path?
Can YOU be the one to show her the right path?
