In two weeks, I graduate. That is such a crazy thought! I'm still trying to get it into my brain, that High School is almost over. I remember seeing Janina graduate, and thinking "My graduation seems so far away", then seeing Justin graduate and still thinking that same thing, but now, here I am. It's kind of a scary thought to think I'll be graduating. School life is all I've ever known, it's safe and routine, but now it's ending. Im going to be taking college classes, and working, not attending the High School youth group, but instead going to the College and Career group. I have to grow up, it's a reality, and it's scary.
Now I know how it feels to want to go back in time. I wish I could re-live just a week of High School, and have in mind the knowledge of life that I know now, but didn't then. Maybe I would have work harder on my projects, and put in just a little extra effort. Maybe I would have been more outgoing and done more school activities. But now all I can say is "maybe I would have".
I know that this life that I'm living isn't really mine but God's, and that's a comforting thought. He know what lies ahead in my life, what classes I'll take, what job I'll do, what new friends I'll make, but He also knows the fear and sadness in my heart (who though I'd be saying those two words, two weeks before I graduate?). He knows that this is a big change for me, and that I'm a little anxious over the thought of "growing up", but I know that there is no task He will put in my path that I won't be able to conquer, or any obstacle that I won't be able to over come.
Our class verse is Romans 8:37- "But in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us". I know God is in control, and I look forward to what He has planned for my life.
