Life is crazy. So much can pile up. Academic. Friendships. Responsibilities. Personal Goals. Then, as these issues continue to build, the wind comes. The wind, the BIG climax, pushes everything around. The climax can turn your all-ready-crazy-life into a tornado.
A tornado, a violent destructive storm of events, occurred in my life. (Which is why I haven't blog in a while). Issues were piling up and then the wind came. All my problems were being twisted together to create one big violent outburst.... or more of an "in-burst". I shut the world out. I closed myself in. To organize myself. To focus on myself. I did not talk to my friends or family about all the problems I was facing. I did not seek help. I soaked up everything that was occurring in my life and embraced in. Made a game plan and then went with it.
Among my violent tornado of problems, faith prevailed. God SHINED during the storm. He was more vivid in my life then He has been for years. I could see His work being done. My roommate, one who is searching for God, came to me with a thirst for Christ. She is hungry for the word of God and has asked to join the Bible study I am in. She comes to me with questions and has sparked in interest in Church. Colin, my rock, kept me grounded in my values and made it aware that God is here for me. Always. Colin had shined God's light through his encouragement.
Most of all, during my time of withdrawal, God comforted me. He lit a light of hope and strength to caring on. Among the times that I struggle the most, the moments of the storms, God prevails. ALWAYS!
You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my sould
