I've been persuaded to start blogging about my average little life as a college student. In a sentence, I've had a wonderfully semi-rough first year as an education-undeclared-nutrition major living away from home and have survived only by God's mercy and grace. I've concluded that no matter what happens these next few years, I will endeavor to give the Lord the first place in all things and let Him take charge.
On a similar note, my friend Danielle and I recently started reading this awesome book called The Normal Christian Life by Watchman Nee. The title itself is catchy. I've been a Christian for most of my life, yet until now I've never considered what a "normal" Christian is (or that Christians were even "normal" in the first place). This book is breaking a lot of my concepts and simultaneously filling me in on things like why we need the Blood of Jesus and how that differs from why we need the Cross. Words like these not only constitute me with deep biblical truths but increase my love and appreciation for our wonderful Lord Jesus.
