Your Questions Concerning Boyce

So a lot of you from Boyce have been asking why I left for the semester...
So here is your answer

I left Boyce in order to strengthen my daily walk with the Lord.

 

Going off to college is one of the biggest things I looked forward too going in to my Sr. year of high school. The first semester of college is suppose to be the best one, right? New Friends.New experiences. A new life:)   

 

But for me, it was not that way.





 

I cant go into Detail about some things but...

In my first semester of college....

I ruined 3 friendships (one being my ROOMATE)

I got into a unhealthy friendship with a guy while still dating my current bf. (PLEASE don't mistake the  word friendship. I know that can sound sketchy but that's all it truly was)

I Struggled with Deception of myself and others

A old sin was brought back up to the surface

I was lazy

I barley put effort in getting to know the people I went to school with, including my own hall mates.

I had an ugly thought in my head saying I was better than everyone else.

I was never happy, I always had an anger too me and wanted to be left alone

I literally didn't want to hang out with anyone

I never let my boyfriend have a social life. Everything was about me.

I quit reading my bible and doing my devotions.

I had a lot of anger harbored in my heart.

And through it all...I never saw the wrong in what I was doing.

 

That was a time in my life where I was the farthest away from my relationship with the lord.

 

Though I would not admit it in August, leaving Boyce for a semester was the best thing for me.

It has given me a chance to clear my mind.

Forgive those who needed to be forgiven.

It gave me a chance to forgive myself for what I had done.

 

 

My walk with the lord is now stronger than ever.

I have a wonderful Accountability partner and mentor whom I am so thankful for

I have regained a happiness which I had lost.

I am letting go of the anger and letting Gods grace and love take its place

I have made new Christian Friends who help me in my daily walk

I am now letting the Lord have complete Control of my life, and am trusting in him complete me

 

 

So there it is, for those who wanted to know
