Pause for awkward laughter.
Because, maybe I'm not like other people my age. But I'm finally ok with that...kind of.
I have had an illness for six years now that has caused me a great deal of inconvenience. I did not get to go to college, I had to quit my job, and I never joined the dating scene when my friends did. I moped about for a while. Why me? Why me? But then, when I realized that my illness wasn't going anywhere, I decided that I had to do something or I would go crazy!
That's why I read. My brain is probably the healthiest part of my body right now. I'm using that to my advantage. My purpose for learning isn't just to be smarter. I like biology for two reasons. One, it's helpful to know how things work; Two, it helps me worship God. Every time I learn something amazing about the human body or an animal or something, I look up at God and say, "Wow, You did that! It's awe-some!" As for English, well, I like communications. I LOVE words and I want to know how to better communicate what I am trying to say. Reading the Bible really goes without saying. Not reading my Bible is like not eating breakfast. I can't go for very long before I fall over dead. :)
For this blog, I just want to share some stuff I'm learning with my friends and family and whoever else cares to read it. I hope that you can learn some stuff that you didn't know and maybe leave my blog saying, "Wow, God is AMAZING!" It wouldn't be because of my writing of course, because I'm nothing special, but I hope I can point to God and He can take it from there.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. Prov. 1:7
(Oh look, my first lesson! :)
