Girls, I am just going to be completely honest. I am discouraged. I haven't been a very godly woman lately. I've been quick-tempered, feisty, sometimes obnoxious, not compassionate, selfish, you name it, I've been it. And you wanna know what- none of those are me (Except quick-tempered, boy have I got a temper--thanks dad for that one! haha).
I have not been faithful in my word; I have failed miserably as a daughter of the Creator of the Universe, and have, in turn, failed at being a friend, a girlfriend, and whatever else I may be.
There is this one type of person I am letting get to me- inconsiderate, selfish, mean-spirited, dramatic. I am usually pretty okay with tolerating people like that (When I'm in the Word daily...). Well, guess what? School has become an idol- even Jeremy has. And everything else I'm involved in.
And most of all- I'm discouraged by the girls who are constantly mean that get by with things that I can't get by with. I know we all feel this way at some time or another, so I don't really have much to say this time- really just wanted to confess my sins to you guys and also encourage you with this verse:
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not
Galatians 6:9
This is my challenge for myself and for you this week and the rest of our lives: Do not grow weary of being the kind and sweet girls every single one of you is- we are all only responsible for our own sins. Don't be discouraged by the unkind. "Be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you!" Ephesians 4:32
