March 28th '13

Hello future self/anyone reading this:

How's it goin?

So, lately I've realized, that as a christian, I struggle with avoiding temptation. I pretty much welcome it. Instead of running from it like I should be, I actually go looking for it. If you're a christian who struggles with this as well... Go read Psalm 101.. Right now... I read it last night and it convicted my heart a lot. I've been talking with my discipler about how I will purposefully go to certain instagram pages just because they post pictures of things I struggle with... and even though I am not doing those things anymore, I'm not staying away from it like I need to be.

Psalm 101 actually says "I will set my eyes before no vile thing" , and if it has anything to do with sin, it is vile.. and I shouldn't be welcoming it.

I believe that whatever you put in your mind will eventually come out.
So be careful. I'm going to be trying that this week.
It's so hard though because it's sin... and I naturally like it... but in order to truly follow my God I need to abandon those things. God is the only thing that will make me happy, and I love Him so why would I want to think on things that take me away from Him?

Just some mental reminders for myself.

March 18th- Almost 5 Months

I'm Almost To 5 Months!

On March 22nd I'm having a muskateer date with Hope and Sabbina to celebrate 5 months of being clear of this stupid sin struggle. Well not all sin but this specific struggle.  I haven't blogged in awhile so here are some general updates.

Ps: I am soon just going to post what "code" is... because it's not me anymore! It's in my past and I can still celebrate another month of not doing it, but It's not who I am.

We are going to do Chronicles of Narnia: LWW for our spring play :) I have the role of Fenris Ulf. I was in an episode of Mysterious TV last month. I'm doing a lot. I got a baddd black eye a couple weeks ago that is finally gone from Softball. I really want to return to Softball soon. I'm directing a music video.

I got into college! :)))))
Question is: Clearwater Christian College, or Southeastern University?

I am officially 18. Friendships are pretty good right now. I can't go a few hours without talking to God.I love Him so much :) I'm happy my close friends are on the same track as me with that. We get closer as we get closer to God. I'm heading to Zumba soon. Monday's and Tuesdays :)
