Again, I'm writing this day a day late. I've been slacking on my blogs cause I've been staying up doing homework. Since I'm gonna be gone for a week I gotta finish work that I'll be missing.
So as of yesterday (day 13) there's nothing big to talk about. Well actully there is. Confirmation class was more depressing than ever. Two things caught my eye. First was this guy who didn't seem like his thoughts were on earth. I probably wouldn't have noticed this if he wasn't sitting right next to the teacher. When Ira was being the class clown as usual, the guy didn't laugh. He didn't even smerk. His face was frozen into the most serious expression that worried me a bit. I talked to him after class on aim. I assured him hope that things will be better. I kept him in my prayers too.
The other thing was another guy in my confirmation class. No I don't scope out guys in church. More than half of my class are guys! Haha anyways, I noticed how much times he had to leave the room. I figured he drank a lot of water or something but then I noticed how each time he came back into the room he looked sicker. After class, the guy, and I with a couple of other students had to saty back to talk to the teacher. As the teacher was talking to all of us, the guy leaves class again but this time he doesn't come back. Our teacher finishes talking to us and I was the last to leave class. As I walk out, I see the guy leaning on the fence, his head facing the ground and puke at the toes of his feet. How could someone, so sick physically and mentally, come to church? Why show face when you can't even show your heart or spirit? It would be best for you and those around you to not even show up drunk as he was.
I can see that maybe 3 or 4 people in my confirmation class doesn't deserve to be confirmed. And I was thinking that I wasn't ready?! I've come to class with my mind and heart. I am committed to my God, my church, my community. I feel more than ready for May 23,2009.
As for the guy who decided to come to class drunk and the guy who is feeling down, I ask for everyone to pray for them. Pray helps, big time.
Day 13: Only God can judge.
