Old School Part 8

After a wonderful Easter break, I sit down to inform everyone that life is wonderful. I heard a wonderful sermon that reminded me of how extreme God's love for us is. I don't want to preach, but if you want to hear more, just let me know. I got to spend some time with friends from high school and with my family, which is almost always lots of fun. Just so you know, things have been worked out between me and Megan. We talked some stuff through over the break and decided to renew the relationship.

How deep the Father's love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

Why should I gain from His reward
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

-Sarah Sadler, "How Deep The Father's Love For Us"

Old School Part 7

Hello again. I just turned off the TV because Georgia Tech is getting killed by a much better-playing Uconn. I just want everyone who has read this since yesterday to know that things are going very well between me and Megan. We've established a friendship and plan on keeping things that way until whenever. We've talked some things through, but there are still some feelings that she's confused about. I ask that you continue to pray for her and again, if you see her, encourage her. For some reason, the friendship feels right. When we started dating, we spent a lot of time investing in each other as friends, which really helps the situation now. I pray that I will continue to seek God first and I encourage all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ to do the same. Not to get preachy, but no one is as faithful as God. He loves you unconditionally. Anyway, I'm going to go to bed, since I have to be at work at six in the morning. I'm out!

Old School Part 6

April 4, 2004
So for those of you who know me, you know that I've been dating this girl named Megan since October. Well, we broke up last night. I'm sorry if you care much for me and find this out by reading instead of me telling you face to face. If you pray, I ask that you keep Megan in your prayers, because she broke up with me to figure out who she is. I've been in a relationship where the girl put her identity in me, and that ended in a very not pretty way. I praise God that Megan was able to step away from me to find herself. I am grateful that Megan was honest with me and with herself. We're going to go with being friends and we'll keep it that way until things change. Megan told me before we started dating (and shortly after the not-so-pretty end of my last relationship) that she was there as a friend and would continue to be a friend. She told me that if later on down the road things changed, then she could be more than a friend. I feel the same way towards her. If you see her, give her some encouragement and remind to to have faith that everything will be okay.

And all of You is more than enough for all of me
For every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with Your love
And all I have in You is more than enough

-Chris Tomlin, "Enough"
