hey everybody...
nobody will probably read this but hey it's all good right?...well i believe that the last time that i updated it was about that whole aruba thing...i now disagree with myself...lol yes i am actually capable of admiting when i am at fault. i now see that the aruban government has not done all that they could in the search for natalee...seeing this has prompted me in the direction of boycotting it myself...not that i have ever been (nor do i desire to go) but if anyone ever asks me of my personal opinion of whether or not they should visit the island i would be more than willing to offer another location idea. anyway...let's see...what has happened in the life of Krystle since i last updated?...honestly not much...i'm completely consumed in school...i made an A in Psychology 200...although i didn't study as much as i should have...now that i'm in psychology 210 i've learned that i need to study more if i want a repeat grade...anyway i now am attending North Park Baptist Church...Formerly i attended First Baptist Church of Trussville...i am not trying to talk bad about any church... however i do believe that FBCT is on it's way down...it seems to me that there are too many ppl concerned with the fellowship over the learning about God...Yes one point of church is to fellowship with your fellow Christians...however the point and the MOST important one is the fact that when you go to church you learn about GOD! i will admit...when i went the FBCT i fell into that catagory....let me back up...i started attending that church because i had a desire to learn about God....i had that hunger and thirst for God's word and i wanted to learn as much as i could so that i could lead others to him...and for a while i was learning wonderful things... then Josh Wisdom came...and the youth group (in my opinion) became even more separated than it was... he did leave but the church seemed to just be divided into cliques...so simply because i didn't really learn anything each sunday that i came to church i started putting fellowship before the desire to be closer to God...and that is horrible... i visited North Park and i was astonished at the unity, the love, the friendliness...it is exactly how a church should be...i learn something new everytime i go and i meet someone new everytime...and it is amazing that the cliques at school do not follow to the church on sunday...and that is how it should be ... when you enter God's house you should not judge or hate you should come into that place with nothing but love.. leave your anger, your sorrow, your hatred at the door and enter humbly... because until you let all the other silly things that bog you down day after day after day at the Lord's feet...then how are you ever going to understand and hear the Lord and His teachings? you can't... How are you supposed to do His work? you can't...The Lord is coming back and it is soon...i intend to learn as much as i can so that i can answer the different questions that non-believers will ask in the hope that they will be led to the Lord and not turned away by my wordly and stupid actions of anger or exclusion...the time is coming and i hope that all are prepared..of course we know that not all will be prepared but i don't want to be the reason that even one person does not come to the Lord because of my selfish and wordly actions...So think about the church that you are currently attending (if you even attend at all) and ask yourself "am i being spiritually fed?" "is the want of friendship overriding my (and the congregation's) need to learn?" think about it....I love all of you and God Bless!
