Day 9

First day on the job is never the easiest. Lol. But it was still good. I made some dumb mistakes (and when I say dumb, i really mean DUMB). I've relearned another lesson. Temptation is evil. It's hard to say no. I don't know why it's so hard, but it is. And when you realize that you've done something wrong, you can't really take it back. All you can do is tell yourself to never do it again. It's called knowledge: live and learn. Yet that knowledge seems to fade after awhile and you forget that you told yourself to never do it again. So you do it...again. And the whole cycle starts all over.

When will it stop? I believe that it will stop when you are struck down with lightning and fallen off your horse. Yeah, I'm talking about St. Paul. He's been a bit of an inspiration to me ever since I did my testimony at the lifenight about his story. So here I post, a huge announcement. I don't know if most of you will even care. Though I doubt it. I've decided to make St. Paul my saint for confirmation. And Yes Ryan, that means I'm staying in confirmation. My decision is likely to change, but the chances may be small. I've gotten myself this far--scratch that, God has gotten me this far. Why turn back? Or even stop? I'm tired of doubting, so I'm gonna start trusting more. I seem to not trust as much as I use to after I came back from my confirmation retreat. God told me to trust, so be it. Leave it all in his hands.

Well that's pretty much all for now. I gotta do my cheat sheet for cheng and start on my slideshow thing for FCCLA.

Day 9: "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it" Yeah, what Paul said - 1 Corinthians 10:13
