"It's not about you, but He is for you"

I had a Bible study tonight with Sam Hord and quite a few other girls.  This Bible study is for "college girls" and whoever may be reading this I encourage you to come! We are studying the book of Joshua and how what he went through applies to our life.  For those of you who may not know, the Bible has something for everyone.  It tells you how to take on every aspect in your life, and that's just what this Bible study is teaching.  We call it "Transitions" because when you graduate high school and begin college your world will change.  You are no longer the kid who lives at home and has your Mommy and Daddy do everything for you, you are completely on your own to make your own decisions, your own mistakes, and most importantly LEARN from it all!


The quote, "It's not about you, but He is for you" may be hard to understand if you only read it once.  I think I had to read it 5+ times to realize what it was supposed to be telling me; but I did figure it out.  This life that we're living isn't all about us and what we want, it's about the person who thought of us before our own parents did; God.  It may not be about us, but He will never leave our side with everything we do on this Earth; as long as you are a believer.  He will be there no matter what and He wants the best for us, and He wants to show us how to get to that place.  


What this quote means to me is that I will never need to worry about anything.  He has my back and always will.  When my walls come crashing down and I think I have no one left, I know He will be there!  He's my number one and my life should be revolved around Him.  Am I perfect in living for Him? NO.  Is it easy living for Him? NO.  I go through different obstacle everyday, and new sin comes up in my life everyday.  There is nothing I can do about it but stay close to God, and be on His path.  His path is the ONLY way and I HAVE to stay on the "straight and narrow" path.


I encourage all of you who are reading to come on Thursday nights at 6:30 in the old Marble Slab building.  There is FOOD & most importantly there is learning about our God.


PINK Bible - only the BEST ;)
