Well, I am coming to the end of the production "A Christmas Carol" and am sorry to see it go. This has definitely been a wonderful show... I've made some good friends. But, sadly, with my personality, I have made enemies... or at least one. And I wonder if I did wrong to cause this or if it was because I did something right. In the years that I've been a Christian, I've come to believe that my faith is a part of me, it's what makes me who I am. This person, who also claims to be a Christian, is not happy when I bring any sort of moral code into the equation, telling me, "You don't bring religion or politics here, Simeon. You don't make friends that way." Well, _____, I don't agree. And honestly, I felt like giving that person something to chew on... like some of their own teeth. Refraining severely tested me. At the moment, I am still struggling to love that person like Christ would want me to... loving an enemy is very difficult. So pray for me... please. That I would continue to show the love of Christ to this foe and attempt to make him an ally. I must pass this test, whether now or later, and I would much rather that it be now.
Moving on, I am extremely excited for the 22nd of December... why? Because I am going to see some good friends in California for Christmas and New Years!!!! Piles of snow, shovels, gloves, hats, and boots, Asher and Ezra, I'll be set for vacation. Graduation is coming quickly, less than half a year away and I am incredibly pumped to be done with school....
God Bless,
Thanx for reading,
and Merry Christmas!!
Simeon
2 Cor. 5:17-21
