Well...I'm back home now! Feels great! Three and a half weeks of enjoying my winter break before starting up a new semester of school. What I realized yesterday was that I am a completely different person from what I was three and a half weeks ago when I was last home. It's a good change because I am back to being me.
Joy has just filled my heart and I love it. God has been good.
I will be honest, going back home was kind of depressing for me. I don't have that many close friends back at home, so I'm starting to think I may be a loner for the most of my break. It makes me wonder if God is making me realize what other things I am forgetting that I could do....for Him.
Yes, I will be working, but what else? What else is God putting on my heart for me to work on while I am back? Last night I had the amazing opportunity to come back to my church's junior high youth group to help. Sure the junior high students may be crazy or....emo...BUT I have a heart for each one of them. I just want to put my heart into them and let them know that they are loved. Being back at church made me so happy in that I could show God's love in His own house.
Another thing I feel that God is putting on my heart is mending relationships with others who have broken off in the past. You see, everyone needs love. Even if I have been hurt by people in the past, I know that they may need my love the most. Besides, I know I have hurt people in the past and God is giving me a perfect opportunity to make an impact by showing His love to everyone.
I just want to make a difference this Christmas break. I just want to show my faith in the Lord.
This will be a great winter break. I'm ready Knox County :)
