Today is my last full day at my first year at Kansas State University. Its hard to really explain how I feel about this. See this year has been by far one of the best, most amazing years of my life. I have gained and grown in so many new friendships. I have grown In my walk with Christ. I have learn that my God is so good, no matter what.
This year began with so much hope and excitement. I couldn't wait to get here accomplish great things. I was so full of life, I was so passionate about my God and my faith. I saw the Lord working so evidently in my life, bringing new amazing people into it. I saw the Lord work more so in the first half of this year than I ever had before. Life was good, it was great. Everything I wanted I had.
But I got content, I lost track of who I was and what my goals where. I started to drift from God and His word. I put other things above him. So the blessings and gifts that He gave me earlier He took away. He wanted me to see that He is all I need. He is the only thing that will give me true joy. I did so well for a long time. But then I got selfish and, well, I hurt a lot of people. I disappointed not only myself but others that I loved. I know the what kind of man I am, I know that I'm the guy that I was at the beginning of the year. But God had to show me the hard way, put me through hard times to get refocused on Him.
But God is so good! He has helped me grow in the last few months more than I thought I could. He has opened my heart His will not my own. Even thought this year was so good and feels like its ending bad. He is good and I see his perfect plan working in my life. I cant thank Him enough for his Love and grace that I don't deserve.
This year has been amazing! So many amazing memories with people that I love. I was blessed to gain a friends that changed my life forever. I was blessed to grow with so many good friends. Even though this year is ending rougher than I thought or wanted. I wouldn't change it for anything in the world.
I wouldn't give up trips to the library with my friends, "Doctors" visits with Ryan and Aaron (love advice), late night talks at Seaton, movie nights with friends, late nights walking home to West, late night pranks with my roommate, adventures in KC, graming in Gardner, snow day adventures, and all those long fun drives from Manhattan to KC. there are so many smaller memories that I can think of but those are just some that I wanted to share.
All I can say is, Lord you have blessed me more than I deserve. You are a great God. Thank you so much for an amazing first year at K-State. I also want to say thanks to Morgan, Sarah, David, Aaron, Ryan, Josh for an amazing year. Your friendship means the world to me. I couldn't ask for a better group of friends. Thanks!
You are all in my prayers. I hope your summers go well and are honoring to the Lord. I hope they are filled with growth in Him. You are loved!
