Who Am I?

     Those 3 words have been driving me crazy recently. People tell you that in college you change and begin to discover who you really are. They are definitely right about that.

    Already as I am a couple months into college, I'm beginning to find this statement more true than ever. College opens up opportunities, freedom, and responsibility. I'm not saying I have it all figured out because I most certainly do not.

     Today I felt absolutely sick to my stomach and didn't really know why. All the sudden a hundred different things were racing through my head. I suddenly became overwhelmed and broke down. This is not something that happens everyday. The main thing that I kept thinking about was the question, "Who am I?" I realized I don't really like the person I'm becoming. There is nothing to explain what happened today other than the fact that the Lord opened my eyes and broke me down, helping me understand where this path would lead. I just haven't been myself and I've been putting my Savior on the back burner recently.

     Who I am should be defined in Christ. Not in college, my friends, or the world. I was in need of a wake up call and a reminder of why I'm here at Arkansas Tech and the mission He has called me to here. Sometimes the Lord works in mysterious ways but He grabs a hold of your heart and shows you His path. 

    He has so much to teach me and now I know I'm really ready to turn around and start chasing His name. 

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." ~Romans 5:1
