So here i am sitting in my room at 1:30am. Apparently it's pouring rain outside, but I cant feel or hear any of it. Is my house really that strong and protective that even the loudest storm can't wake me up?
I was just thinking of my comfort zone. All these years, i've been with pretty much the same group of friends. Sure, there's been fights and disagreements, but in the end, everything's okay. And school's been pretty much just another way to kill time. Sometimes we really lose ourselves in this world. Who am i today? Why do i need to make an effort to do this and that? Why should i bother with homework, with friends... with God, even. I don't know about you, but everyday seems to be just another day.
But there's so much more out there. When im in my room, everything seems fine. But beyond those bricks is a storm (or some sort of it). And school is much more than just a place to kill 7 hours. Once you realize that God has placed you in the school(and churhc) to DO SOMETHING, then you'll see the importance of it. It might just be chilling with your friends and cheering them up when they're upset, or keeping them accountable. You have a role in people's lives, and so do those around you. It's time to take care of others, and let them take care of you.
There's so much out there. Beyond the walls of my house is a storm. I dont know about you, but it's time to let yourself out there and experience what's going on rather than hiding inside your room. Yes, you need to observe, listen, share.. but mostly you need to DO something.
