So I'm supposed to post this verse from the bible from sunday school because Anthony said so. Unfortunately, i forgot what it was. My bad. I will find out later or if anyone knows from my sunday school class, please post it! Yeah, so I've finally decided to blog for my first time.
Anyways, for the past three months, or should I say from the first day Amy created this blog, i was really busy. I was busy with school, friends, family, and work. I was focusing on all these things and i have almost forgotten about God. I need Mondays for "family day", Tuesday for "friends day or alone time", Wednesday for "work", Thursday for "tutoring", Friday for "fellowship and boyfriend", Saturday for "work", and Sunday for "church and boyfriend later on". For everyday of the week, I do homework (yes i do homework at work because my boss doesnt care yay). So yeah, i have my whole week planned for the rest of my 2 years of high school.
Since Semester 2 started, i had way too much homework. I just didnt know how to manage my time. My friends come up to me and say "we don't hang out anymore, you're always busy. lets do something on this day." And my family says "we never have any family time. we always do our own thing." And my school says "you dont do homework, you fail." so what do I do? I squish everything in my schedule leaving out God. You guys may have notice that i skip fellowship and church sometimes. I really need better time management skills. I think i have pressed the paused button, with my relationship with God. I stopped reading the bible daily (it was my new years resolution :] )
Then, march break hit. TC started. I was so happy because i finally have time with God. I enjoyed every moment at TC because i didnt have to worry about anything. For those two days, i was just spending time with God, learning more about him.
So, after march break. I guess I've been trying to attend to church and fellowship regularly and also reading my bible when i can. Keeping up with all my homework. Keeping in touch with my friends, and family. And going to work as usual. Right now, i've decided to make room for God, just like i did for the other things i sqeezed into my schedule. So thats the reason why i decided to blog for my first time because it seems like I wasnt reaching out to God.
I'm sorry if this is too confusing, because i jumped topics for here to there, back and forth and everywhere. Now, i'm off to study my two tests on thursday and my two assignemnts due on friday.
p.s please pray for me for better time management skills :)

ReplyDeleteYeah, school is hectic, but just remember that nothing else is more important than God :D
o another first timer! welcome!! :)
ReplyDeletecertainly, dealing with relationships, work and school isn't always easy. I can't really offer you any advice, but seek advices from those with experience, *cough* amy *cough*.
When things get out of hand, it is easy to put God aside, because God is more "abstract" while the other things are more concrete. I, myself, have had and still have these problems. But, do remember that God is above all things.
My former sunday school teacher used to remind me of this equilateral triangle (60 deg angles and equal length), describing the relationships between God, myself and others. When you are closer to God, you are closer to other people AND you can bring other people closer to God. Unfortunately, I don't know how to draw that triangle here.
Sometimes, a small message here and there is better spending long hours together, because you are making every possible effort to connect with that person in your busy schedule.
Good day
