Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire

If I could tell you that taking the stairs up to the gym, from Aagard, is the easiest thing that I have done while at college, I would be lying to you.  If I told you that Aarmark's food was amazing, I would be lying to you.  If I said that all of the homework was a breeze, I would be lying to you.  If I told you that I survived my freshman year without having a 'middle school' crush on a guy, I would be lying to you.

I embarked on my college journey just three short months ago, and boy has it flown by.  At times, my brain cannot fathom how fast it has gone, yet when I look back I remember all of the great memories I have made thus far.  With Thanksgiving break approaching quickly its given me some time to sit back and think upon what God has done in my life as well as the lives around me.  I have been able to hear all of the amazing testimonies of how God paved the way financially for students to come here, or how God had redeemed them from sexual sin, or even how God kept them far away from those temptations!  Praise the Lord for testimonies!  In Revelation 12:11 it says "And they have conquered him [the devil] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death."  Because of the things that other people have gone through, and the sharing of those stories, we are able to shed light into the darkest places of our lives and overcome the devil.

I would be lying to you if I said that God hasn't done anything significant in my life, but I will save that story for another time.
