Life could be so much better if...

So I'm just sitting in my room, reading my Bible. Then the thought of homework crosses my mind...great. The homework is for dual credit government. I have to read from pages 3 to 42, that's a lot of reading for me. Let me tell you, going from reading the Bible to reading an enormous book about politics is no easy task. I read the first paragraph and was already so bored. I couldn't stop thinking about the differences between the Bible and the politics book. Life could be so much better if I was just assigned to read the Bible for government class because the Bible is truth, it's our sword, our weapon. But no, I have to read something that is brain washing all my beliefs. I know that politics are a big part of the way we live, but sometimes I wish that we could all be on the same page, just once! Anyways, that's my dilemma at the moment. I mean, it's great that I'm even reading the Bible because I hate to read! So lets do the math here: reading + politics + a lot of pages = the worst homework assignment ever. Here come the prayers.

  1. Hey Kenzie. I'm not really sure if we've ever even met face to face before, but I feel as though I already know you. I mean, you are my sister for goodness sake, we both have the same Father in Heaven. I just wanted to let you know that I COMPLETELY get what you're going through. About a year ago I literally thought the exact same things. Homework and things like cleaning my room seemed like the stupidest things on the planet. It was really frustrating when I knew there was an entire world out there who needed Jesus and I was stuck in my room. I don't know if that's exactly what you are feeling, but I do know this. God has a plan :) I remind myself of that everyday. God is going to do something through you. You have a purpose. An incredible journey! My advice, enjoy where you are now. Now that I'm actually out in the world I wish I would have had more time to prepare. So prepare! Brace yourself! God is working.
    your sister in Christ,
    Claire
