This is another one of those "I don't write enough anymore" posts; I'll admit, writing takes more time for me than I'd like out of the day. In the past month, I've gotten bolder - I think that's the best way to put it.
School has never been a problem for me. I've admitted to many friends that its what takes place outside of class that causes me to have gray hairs popping out of my head. I'm bored or I'm busy or I don't know what to do or I'm keeping my time open - I've been pretty lax about how I take control of the things I have to do.
And this year, it has finally hit me that I need to take action and seriously plan out my priorities with my time. College applications is probably the most imposing item on that list, but so many FUN things want to take precedent over it.
A few friends and I started a club at school named "PBinJ" otherwise known as "People Believing in Jesus." It started as an idea for a few of us to have a support group and accountability partners that would keep us on track in our faith. Now, after a few meetings with pastors and other people, we decided that it really was important to open it up and help the Christians at our school find those friends that have the same beliefs that they do and build them up in Christ. That's where we are today and that's what we hope to accomplish.
So what I mean by bolder was to start sticking up for my faith and start taking action to tell others about it. It's hard to believe that such an integral part to me growing up hasn't been as important to me as it is now becoming.
And look, the time I used doing this rather than doing homework. Ah :\
