I'm not an emotional person. I often wish that I was. That I would cry, that I would get furious, that I would let myself not be okay. But anyways,
For my floor class, our first assignment was to spend time alone, silent, for an hour. I know for a fact that many people thought it would be super hard for me because I am so loud and crazy, but I LOVE sitting with God in silence. I think about . . . .
Nothing.
Centering Prayer is really powerful, but it is hard for people to do. It is understandable, but it was really hard and scary for a girl on my floor. We got to comfort her, and just be with her when she was confronting the fear of being alone for an hour in silence. I am excited to see what God is going to do with that situation.
In response to some of your posts, Unitarian Churches have a ton of people who don't believe in the Christian God. I'm not sure if you already knew that, but your comment was a bit confusing. Anywho, It will be interesting.
Also, is it bad to say that I didn't really know what one would normally think of when they hear 'marine biology'? I'm not a science person. YOU KNOW THAT.
And for your information, writing papers is NOT easy for me. Actually it is really stressful if my O.C.D. kicks in. By the way, I got tested for A.D.D. today and the results are on Monday. I'm basically positive that I have it.
Finally, A shout out to one of my favorite organizations LiNK which stand for Liberty in North Korea. It is an amazing organization that helps North Korean refugees escape and relocate to America and South Korea. We had a ramen party here at Calvin, our chapter wanted to spread awareness about the Program and what is going on in North Korea. Here is a testimony from one of the refugees.
I hope school starts well for you! YAYYYY SCHOOL
2 Tim 4:3-4: "For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths"
