It's done.
School is finally out for me! Yessss! Though honestly it really saddens me cause I'm probably not going to see alot of those people for the rest of my life and I hate that but it's the way it is. Atleast I'll keep in touch with some of them. So many people were crying yesterday I just wanted to cry too but I kept myself from that. Then I got to thinking... Did I make a big enough impact and difference in that school and with all the poeple around me? I know I could of made a bigger difference if I "threw my pride to the side" and I know I missed and overlooked so many opportunities and I dont' want that to happen again. I want to make a difference, I want to impact people, I want people to see Christ in me. I can't help but think that I could of planted more seeds at school, though I probably planted more than I think I did. But my two years in that school is up now, I did what I could, I tried, I failed, I learned. Now I'm on to another journey, going back from where I came from.. It was almost like a little missions trip going to Frank Hurt. And now this coming year I will going to North Delta Secondary, I'll be rejoining with the poeple I grew up with. I'm excited to see everyone but I know it'll be really wierd to adjust to. It's been two years, I've changed, they've changed and it's not going to be like it was, but I think I'm prepared for that. Honestly I am so excited for this coming school year I can't wait until it finally arrives. I know God has HUGE plans and I'm excited for him to reveal those plans and I'm excited to see what he's going to do through all of us. And I'm going to try my best to not let my pride get in the way, I've chosen to live for Christ and it's time I truly live.
So until then I have TWO MONTHS, two months to do whatever. And I'm scared by that. I'm scared that I'll just let it go by, I dont' want to just let it go by, I want this summer to be a summer of learning and growing in Christ for me. I'm so eager to learn and what a better time is this? Where I have all the time in the world. But I must use my time wisely and remember that everything that I do will affect my future and I just have to really make sure I dont' fall behind and screw up. I know this summer is just for me and God and for us to be together. I know this summer isn't about going to all the events and doing something everyday with people. But in saying that, I must make sure that I dont' fall behind cause it's realistic for that to happen. I have chosen to do two big events this summer, the Missions Trip to Sointula and to go to Camp Evergreen.
Why the missions trip? Because I know I'm going to draw so close to God during that trip. I know I'm going to really learn what it means to be a servant. I am so excited for that trip and God has been preparing me for it so much already. 25 days.
Why camp evergreen? Because it will be a time for me to in some ways relax and relect on my summer, while I make friends, build stronger friendships and be encouraged. And it's right before the school year starts so it will keep me busy for that last week and it will help prepare me for what God will do during the year.
Other then those, I don't plan on doing any other major events, I dont' feel I shoud commit myself to anything else... such as EXPLOSION and VBS. I know I'm going to get alot of questions about this, but that's okay. And if it becomes manditory for the Missions Trip team to attend Explosion then I wont' be going to either. It's the decision I have made and it's whats on my heart right now.
I will not just stand on the sidelines and I will not waste my time, but use it like He would.
