today i had my position tournament. i did very bad and lost in the first round. i never caught up but when i was losing by alot there was only one thing in my head. God has given me the strength to press on and go so much and catch up in score i couldnt ask for more. i did so much better by just thinking of Him and having Him in my head the whole time. dana made it. i lost to helen but this will def make me strive for next year. not making past the first round may be a sign. i have a feeling its like telling me to go on and be a student leader and put my heart into it. back then i would need barnes to help me through with his talks about faith but now im helping other people these talks and its makes me feel so happy. my walk with the king has gone so far, i want to go even further and stay at this spiritual high forever.
after losing that i went to bible study and we made it in time just before they started. we were talking about perseverance.
James 1 12 "God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him." [NLT]
basically this is saying that whoever goes through all the trials in life, in the end God will bless those people. well first God gives us all these tests so we can learn from them and to let us know that He is there for us. it's like if God is always giving everything to us the easy way, we would take everything for granted and not work for it. simple as it can be.
