Difference Between School and Home
As I have been sitting at home pretty much reading and doing nothing else worthwhile, I have come to a conclusion that some may find hard to believe. I even found it hard to believe, at first. When I am at home, my relationship with God grows and is the most important part of my life. I seem to value my relationship with Him more when I am home as well. As I began to think about this, I started to wonder why. I mean, I go to a Christian School, and do not live in a Christian home, so how is this possible? Should it not be the other way around? When I am at school, it is so easy just to fall into the swing of things. I am not saying that the relationship with God does not exist, but I do not work at it as much. I pray less, I spend quiet time with Him less, and I am not much of a witness. One reason for this I think is because I consider having to read the bible for class as my quiet time (pathetic, I know!). When I am at home, I want to be the greatest witness that I can be for my family and friends. At school, most if not all of my friends are already Christians. At home, I indulge myself in His word more and more. I find it interesting that I find my true strength in Him when things are not the greatest. It would be so easy to praise Him at school because things are going so well. But at home, you would think it would be harder because of the circumstances. So, a new goal for when I get back to school and that is to maintain this strong relationship with Christ.
