a thought that has been surfacing again and again.
i’m struggling with a certain lifestyle choice right now. every time i revert back to it, my faith stumbles like crazy. i can’t pray, i can’t read scripture..because i feel absolutely guilty and i don’t feel worthy enough. but then i am left to wonder how i felt before. did i feel like i could act on my faith before this sin because i thought i was worthy and holy enough?
thank God for reminding me of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
i am reminded that i am never, never worthy enough. i can never be without sin, even when it feels like everything is right. but that’s where the beauty of Jesus Christ comes in.. only He is able to rescue us from our sinfulness, when He bore our sins on that cross. All so that we can fellowship and know God.
but for now, please pray that i can value Christ over anything this world offers..

update: i’m officially a case western alumni
maaaaaan, it feels gooooood! i haven’t gone through college withdrawal. yet
i’ve always told people i think i’m borderline introvert/extrovert. i know that i definitely get energized when i’m around people, and there are times when i absolutely cannot keep a single thought inside my head. but its times like now, where i’ve just been home and by myself when i realize how much i sometimes enjoy being on my own. so home has been very refreshing in that sense.
but i’m excited to go back to cleveland! which will be in the next few days, where i’ll be resisting having any type of life and fun as i study for the DAT… but please pray that i will study for the sake of God’s kingdom, that i will keep my eyes on Jesus during times of stress, and that my motivation to study will be none other than to glorify the Lord
totally unrelated:
for people who are all about technology, i found a cool website that has kept me in check with praying: echo prayer
cool story about how God works through technology--so on this site you can request texts or emails to be sent randomly about praying. i was journaling about how i think God has been reminding me to wait on Him in terms of the salvation of my family. seconds later, i got an email. topic? pray for family.
