Rollercoasting Downward and Up It Went
I was forced to buckle myself into a roller coaster ride as soon as the needles struck 12 and as much as I enjoy roller coaster rides, this ride was not going to be fun. The day started off rough. Looking back at those results, man was it unpleasant. I tried to be positive and I told myself that I can make it up and all things will turn out good. Then I remembered, I was suppose to meet my church pastor this evening. We’ve been having this talk and although I made my decision it was only getting harder. It’s all gonna work out.
As I was driving off-campus to go see him, boom! Thank God it was minor. I did end up meeting the pastor afterward and we talked about an hour regarding the same topic that we’ve been discussing for the past two weeks. The more I think about the scenario and how my decision will affect others, I know it will turn out well. I also remembered last night’s lecture where the professor told the class, “you should always make the best and the right decision.” Who doesn’t.
This was when the roller coaster stopped spiraling downward and finally the ride was heading straight and up. 7 p.m., I attended a presentation. Porn Nation. Michael Leahy came and spoke about his early childhood, his struggles with pornography, and how his life changed when God came into his life. I was able to relate many things with the speaker and I was really challenged. I am so glad that the event took place tonight because it would have been a very depressing day otherwise.
Life was never meant to be easy. Thank you Lord.
