so we're back in the real world now. one where people are going to suuround us with their spring break stories.. are you ready? am i ready? this week has benn very interesting for me.. i left my school with not giving much attention to how worldly everyone is.. i was letting things slide and lowering my standards of how to live because i had gotten so used to it. i was in a state of shock when i came back.. people tellling me stories and me getting sick to my stomach. i had been in a place surrounded by Christ and forgot how bad the world really was. i encourage you, brothers and sisters in Christ, to not lose your focus. to let your school, as alex lewis said, be your mexico. let every class be a new village and share Jesus with those who "are running around frantically trying to find Him." when you see someone slipping, remind them of mexico and be there when they need you the most. i encourage you to have a strong spirit and not let the things of the world bring you down.. be around those things is inevitable, but remember that we are "not of this world". i love you all.. have a delightful weekend!
