I'm Out!

So, just because I want to release frustrations I am typing this blog. I am moving. Yea, I know, why? Because I want a change, I'm sick of crap, I want to get to know my dad, I can be closer to Matt, I can get more help paying for school, and I can just simply get away! Why it's hard to leave? It is a change. I have to give some things up, mainly sleep because school is now farther. Most importantly, I have to leave my little brother behind whom I love despite each others stupidity at times (notice I said each others). Now, I've already begun the process. I transferred jobs, I start Sunday. Also, last night I moved furniture. You know, the stupid weather people kept saying, rain rain rain! I don't see any rain! You see, I at the last minute planned to move furniture last night. I did this because of rain. I thought it was a great idea. That way all I had to worry about tonight was packing the last few things and unpacking. I am tired. Also, my gpa was needed after all and he really wanted to go to the Grad at UG tonight. So, called my dad and called my gpa and decided my mom should know. Well, apparently the idea wasn't a great idea to all. We still moved my stuff but now, unfortunately, I don't think this move is going to go smoothly any more. I was hoping there would be no anger, just saddness. Screw that idea. My frustration...all that crap for nothing. It's not raining!!! I'll be glad when tonight comes and I'm chilling with the parrot! I'm hoping Austin can still come up. I really wanted to do this for him so he could see where I'll be. It doesn't make up for me leaving but at least he can know he's welcome and I'll be ok. Right now, I'm just really pissed. I was trying to do a good thing for myself for once. I really should give up but I'm more than 1/2 way there! Come tonight my address will not longer be Lexington.

1 Peter 1

***It's amazing to see the progression of learning in just a few semmesters. This paper was written Freshman year at PBC in one of my first classes. This is supposed to be an essay. Some of the ideas are sill accurate but the style of writing and the fact that there are only two paragraphs makes me laugh. That is what I mean by progression of learning.***

1 Peter 1:9-12 refers to grace. We learned in our studies that this grace was seen in some degree in each of the seven dispensations. This mentions the grace that was foretold by the Old Testament prophets. This is one proof of the fact we have been seeing that the two sections the Bible is divided into do not contradict each other. Grace was mentioned in the Old Testament and is again reiterated in the New Testament. The one leads into the other.
If you look back at the before verses in 1 Peter 1 you can see more of the context of this portion of scripture. It says, “Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.” This portion leading up to our small section of reading shows us the truth being discussed here as a whole- salvation by faith. This is another topic we have discussed very diligently in our studies coinciding with the idea of grace. This idea was the fact that the way to salvation in every dispensation has always been by faith!
