Stretching, A Little Too Much?

This first week of J-Term went extremely fast. I have already taken 4 quizzes, and completed one presentation. All in one week! I am getting used to having to sit still in a class for an entire two hours. One thing that I still am struggling with a bit is the whole friend issue. Of course, I have friends, great friends, but none that are close. Most of my close friends are on trips or not doing J-term (or transferred). I am thoroughly convinced that there is some master minded plan behind this. Of course, this is planned by God. I am not sure what He is trying to show me, or what He is trying to get me to understand. Last night there was a student led chapel. I decided to go since I love chapel and I didn't have anything else to do. It was the hardest chapel that I have ever been to. Not only was it the hardest chapel, but it was harder than any church service that I ever sat through! I don't think that I had ever felt so guilty in my entire life. After I got back from chapel and thought about it for a while, I really misinterpreted what the guy was saying. He said that we need to make sure that we are in right relationship with our friends and those whom we may have hurt. I interpreted it as if we aren't in right relationship with EVERYONE, then we cannot be in right relationship with God. I love how my mind makes small things into huge ordeals. After much thinking, relief came and I was finally able to realize the truth. I am okay with a little bit of spiritual stretching, but a lot? We will have to see!
