Apparently school starts this week. It seems like everyone is slowly getting into their regular ways of life. Summer comes to mix things up for a couple of months and then runs off while you try to figure what just happened. But this Summer went by so slowly and was accompanied by so many events that it feels like I will be departing from my regular life to normal, boring, and uneventful school life. Especially this last year of high school. Only having three subjects (2 technically, if you don't consider Bible an actual class) leaves room for extra independent studies, which I tend to do. I need to keep my math skills in check this year.

It's been getting very quite around the house. That is understandable since nearly a half of our family went to live their glorious college lives. You can pretty much count the number of words that are said in a day around here. I like it. You may pity me, Dear Reader, but please don't. Maybe it is because I have grown up with older parents, but I find it so calming to just keep things simple and enjoy rest and relaxation. However, all vacations come to an end. I'll be starting school this week. Senior year....You gonna go down. Oh, and I have to sit for my GED. Now isn't that the little, delicious cherry on top?

On another note, the pastor said an interesting thing this Sunday. If you're struggling with something in your Christian walk....Good.

I always found it somewhat comforting (mind you, in a disturbing way) when I struggle with my vices. Every time I wrestle with my flesh when it concerns idolatry and the like I tend to find peace. Knowing that I struggle is the main way I know I am His child. When you become a Christian you are born anew, right? You are basically a different person than you were before. Unconditional love and eternal life are given to me. I now desire things of the Lord.  The earnest want to follow and obey Him. When ever I fight with myself I remind myself of that. If you don't have struggles in your walk with Jesus than I would have to ask you,

"Are you even walking with Jesus? Or have you strayed too far away and have gotten comfortable with your life? Or even worse....Were you even walking with Him?"
