So, tonight was interesting to say the least... we were really bored so it started out with a roasing 2 hour game of volleyball followed bny returning movies and eating... coming back and leaving again with a 4th person going to the movie store again, going to rothwell park, going to walmart and getting a 3-hole punch with meowing kitties and then eating again...
after we got back, we had people staring at us and we finally decided to go on a walk.
The walk ended with us sitting down and having girl talk about my insecurities and whether God does really want me to wait 3 more years until I have a relationship.
after that I was fluster and confused and we ended up talking to someboys for at least 4 hours in back of Pelfrey... It was such a good time because we were open and honest about a lot of things with really open questions. something you cant do with just anyone... we had such a good time we barely wanted to leave but it was cold and late.
Some things we learned (guys tell me if this is true):
Normal guys, not just ones looking to get somewhere, will take more than 3-6 months before he talks to you about a serious relationship.
Guys are just as shy and nervous about girls and dating as girls are.
Guys can be really amazing sometimes just in there own way, but girls need to be patient enough to let them do that and be that.

Sometimes when Im here I get so depressed and upset about the fact that Im single because everyone is so busy hooking up or trying to that they miss the real meaning in life. Life isnt about having kids and making babies. Its about having relationships that change lives for Christ.
Sometimes I just wonder if Im pathetic for wanting someone that I dont know to take the time out to sit and talk to him, and have a heart to heart in real life...
The truth is I would be more willing to put my heart on the line if more people would take the time to get to know me... Im not scared about getting hurt because its a part of being in ministry and in life in general but when the people around (besides your close personal friends) make you feel like you dont exist there is a problem... Im not saying I want the whole school to pay all their attention to me, but broadening your horizons its such a bold thing to do, and Christ did it everyday.

There is this woman here (late 20's), and I got to talk to her a little today. I realized if the only reason I was back here at central was to minister to her that I was ok with that and that God is going to use me... because its out of my comfort zone and in usual life I wouldnt have taken the time to talk to her and get to know her and looked her in her eye and told her the God does have a plan for her life, and that he will change her and break her strong holds.
My God can do anything if it is in His Will. and my God WILL change that womans life this year whether its me or someone else. God's plan ALWAYS prevails!
