Life.
It's funny.
I knew I had changed...grown-up...matured, but how much I didn't know. Not until last night when I was talking to Karen did I find my answer. I've changed a lot.
I may not be the most devout christian, but I belive God has touched my life so much recently.
I realized...everyone is tested, and not everyone can do something about it.
I've been tested.
I'm not going to school this semester...and I hate it. I wish I could drop everything, and tell the world to stop screwing with me so I can get on with my life. But I can't. I have to stay home...I have to help my mom and sister...I have to stay at work...I have to help Truman. This is my test.
Can I make it through another semester of educationless time? Can I fulfill those needs...the needs of others...in this time? Can I get on with my life at the same time?
I've been praying, and I think so. God won't let me fail. God has given me the strength I've needed to carry on all my life. I've always been the strong one on the outside, and it's time I started being the strong one inside. I thank God for the strength I've been given, and I feel it so selfish to ask for more.
He gave me this life, these tests, and only He can help me through them.
Thank you Katie, and Vaness, and Meliss. God lives in you, and he shines through you. I don't know if you all know, but each of you has brought me closer to God in some way. Thank you.
I've changed.
I am an adult who is a child of God.
