It's true
It's true that if you are ever feeling bad, down, sad, or just plain miserable, serving the Lord will always bring you joy. I've been in college for 4 weeks now and it has been some of the hardest four weeks of my life. I went from always being around people who loved me and who I loved them. They were the most on fire christians I had ever met, but this, this is different. I'm surrounded by 30 thousand people and probably only about 500 of them are committed Christians. I walk through this campus, so much darkness here and I can't help but think that I need to do something to change this I don't have many friends outside of the ministries I'm involved in and that's never been something that I'm really use to. Don't get me wrong, I have found some really awesome Christian friends here who are amazing, but what about the rest of the 30 thousand here who do not know Christ. They do not realize how privileged they are to be loved by the creator, let alone be here in this beautiful town. This town is evidence enough that there is a God. We are in one of the most beautiful cities in the country and they probably don't realize it. One thing that always stands true is that God loves them the same and he always will. He loves them with a love out of this world and I pray that one day they will realize that cuz the day they do is the day they are changed forever. I love all of them and so wish I could show every single one of them just how much God is in love with them. There are plenty of people that I will never see in my next four years here but I know that God is going to put some people who desperately need Christ in my path. When that happens, I'm going to in words, throwdown on them lol. They won't even know what hit them but it's going to be a glorious day. God put me here for a reason and I'm finally starting to see what that reason is and it's beautiful. I cant wait for that day when somebody realizes how much God loves them and they committ to following the Lord. So it's true, if you are ever feeling sad, bad, down, or miserable, serve the Lord and you will experience more joy than ever in your life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
