Promises

Hebrews 10:23
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.

As much as I hope to do well in school.. in life.. whatever, I realized that there's so much more to life than my own successes. I find that a lot of people... even Christians talk get consumed by SCHOOL when of course I admit school is important, but isn't there more? At fellowship a few nights ago, we had sharing - so people voluntarily shared whatever was on their hearts. Many talked about school ... and how they trusted God... and their grades were good...

I don't know, maybe school was never a big struggle for me. I'm not the smartest person I know, but I work hard and hope that it'll pay off. But also, when I think about how I spend my time, I've given up a lot of things... like tv, shopping and so... what do I do with my time? Mostly studying, working, spend time with friends/family, fellowship or church. I'm still not sure of the promises which God has planned for me, but I'm holding onto hope... that He is faithful and is leading me in the best direction.

My first final tomorrow :) yay... heh
I want to praise God though, for being faithful in my first semester. The majority of it has been good... fun... I like the people I've met and become friends with. I just wonder what next semester will be like! I'm excited to attend onething at the end of this month, it should be pretty sweet.
