LAC cornerstone video & talk

On Sunday, in Cornerstone, our theme was "Relying on God". Alysha, my group leader asked us: Have you ever thought literally being God's child. to be honest, i haven't. it's hard.
then we talked about "crying out to God". do i do it often? is it something i do when i feel down? cry out to God, have i cried out things other than, asking why things happen?
God gives us hardships so we can grow closer to him, so we can rely on him. think about it, if we didn't go through hardships, do you think we'd become closer God? the answer, probably not.
"Have you ever acted like you were fine, when you weren't?" yehh, heaps of times. but do you act in front of God? i don't know. do i? there's no use though. God knows everything.
There's a hole in everyone's heart that is shaped especially for God. Yet, we fill it with other things. but however much we fill with other things, the hole can only fit God.
Friends. is there really something called eternal friends? being there for each other all the time? sorry to break this to you, but no. God is the only being that can be there all the time. never betray you. even family can't do it. only God.

i thought this talk was very touching. and the discussion fit my problems very well.
Cry out to God. Rely on him. i need to do it more often.

A "short" update

Huh, it's been quite a while since I've posted here. Trials are creeping closer and closer, and you can't say I'm not stressed. But at the same time I haven't been the most productive person...in fact, I must say I'm very lazy. Less than 2 weeks til trials and I'm sitting here writing a blog. Here's how I've been going. All the drama's died down since last time, thankfully. I'm learning to let it go and not let it bother me as much. At the moment it seems that my parents are keeping a close watch on my sister, and God willing, it won't happen again. In terms of Barney, I can't say I don't have feelings towards him anymore, but it has been better. I guess I'm able to be comfortable around him again. My pain has returned, but what can I do. My menstrual cycle is currently terrible- I think I've bled for almost a month now. The pain is as usual, a pain- especially to manage because my meds haven't been of use lately....

Apparently not stressed enough.

Why don't my parents do the HSC if they think it's so easy? So, basically, I got my report last night and when my dad saw it, he just kept repeating the fact that my marks were crap and that I'm doing horribly. "You should be the top of the school" My mum wasn't any better, saying that I didn't do well and I need to work harder. Why do they only look at extension maths? I KNOW I FAILED IT. As if I don't feel crappy already. Don't cry. You can't cry.  You're not allowed to cry.

A timely reminder in the midst of chaos.
