Pheww..
Came back from Sunday mornin' church...first time going. The church i went to today, was called "Calvary Baptist Church"...and they provided "free" bus rides there, so im like, "ehhh, pretty cool." When i got there, received a "free" breakfast. (but obviously i didn't know bout this b4, so i couldn't have came there for tht...). So, I knew about it from a friend, of a friend, of a friend of mine...which is now my friend. And he invited me to "Campus Church" (my school fellowship), and later on invited me to this church. I must say, I'll probably be comin to this church from now on...every week i decide to stay in town. It's super convenient. You jus gotta wake up in time...which I almost failed to do today. I woke up 5 min b4 the bus was suppose to arrive, and got there 2 min b4 it actually did. I think i would've slept in...if someone didn't wake up. Think it was God. Cuse it was jus the perfect timing...suddenly felt an urge to wake up, like someone was pushingg me lol. Then i woke up, and came to church the clothes i slept in.
Today, I asked a question....
But first of all, today, we were talkin about: "Not giving in to people" (eg. peer pressure)". Because it is always so easy to. ESP me...I'm sure u guys no me, and wut a giving up/giving in/pushover person i am.
So I asked: "How do you come about doing so?" or in other words...how do u respond to that? Cuse all he was talking about the whole time was..."Don't give in", "Don't follow those that cause you to do wrong"...in my words, or mre like the Bible, it would be "Don't conform to others, But transform others into God's likeliness". Yeaa.
So i wanted to know exactly how he would go about doing that...tellin ppl "No" or standing up for what you believe in when you'd feel like you could "fit" in so much more. I actually don't have a problem with tht...fitting in? cause i alreadi don't LOL. It's just for me, it would be ruining a "relationship"? or "friendship"?...if you don't respond properly. Cuse they're bound to ask you "Why"...WHY don't you do the stuff, that we all do...or wut i'd recommend you to do.
You see...I have a big problem with that. Usually what ends up happening...is i say wrong thing. And i dun realli wanna start beef with nobody...so yea. I HATE offending ppl for the wrong reason...or when i don't intend to. but for me...it just happens, to everyone around me. I'm just a natural at that. I'm also someone....who cares too much bout friends? Like, friends...are important. But what i learned today, (or have alreadi learned, but reminded), was that we gotta put God first. Even if it kills the relationships we have on earth. And friends we have on earth, are cool nd all...but Jesus is an everlasting friend. I find that i get a lil too paranoid when i lose friends too...when really i haven't. Stupid me...sometimes.
And we ended off with him praying for me.
---/I finally conquered the distractions of Youtube, facebook-ing, hotmail, gmail, blogger (wait...im on it now), while I'm doing work. Like, I can finally finish one whole "thing" to completion...without, browsing anywhere else. I gotta say, I quite proud of myself.
