(no subject)
I've been hitting some hard times in my life. And one thing I realized is that prayer and God can get you through anything. I have recently been put on the executive board of christian ministry on campus and i am thrilled I am there...but there is this thought in my head that I don't feel like i'm ready for it. I'm not sure if this is a thought from the devil to make me doubt myself, but I'm trying to figure that out.
As a leader now, I have soooo much work to do. Everyday i have something new to plan for and to attend to. It kind of sucks, but then again, I am meeting someone everyday.
Thats kind of where I am at right now...Just trying to finish up the year without losing it.
My small group had a discussion last night about verses and issues in the bible that are unclear. I have a Catholic girl in my small group who does great things on campus for us. She is amazing and such a role model. We all talked to her last night about what they believed in. She prays to Mary and Saints and she is debating if she really truly believes in purgatory. But she believes in mortal sins and all that stuff. I'm just so confused as to where Catholics came up with some of these ideas. They aren't biblical and if anyone has info on it, let me know. She does remain strong in her beliefs but i respect her for them because she doesn't have to defend her beliefs. She accepts people don't like her beliefs and still believes them anyways. So if you guys know where some of this came from, let me know. i'm interested.
Time for me to go finish up some papers.
God Bless
