In this world but not OF it.
"They are not of the world, even as I am not of it." - John 17:16
How can John say he is not of the world when he lives in this world!? Simple. You can be in the world and not be of the world. Being of the world mean you satisfy your flesh rather than satisfying your soul or your spirituality that craves God. Oh how easy it is to fall directly into the ways of this world. As humans we strive to fit in and sometimes fitting in requires being OF this world rather than just in it. How many times have you caught yourself adapting to your surroundings without even knowing it?
Not too long ago, I was enjoying a nice game of basketball in my team sports class at my educational facility center. I love the game of basketball because it gives me an excuse to wear socks bigger than my arm and yell things like "FORE!!". Throughout this lovely game of basketball many of the players would reward another player with a compliment after he/she made a good shot. The compliment was the same every time. After each good shot that was made, I would hear somebody say "good sh**". Now I'm not the biggest fan of profanity but I never minded it that much. After a good twenty minutes of intense basketball(walking back and forth asking for the ball), I realized that I sometimes was saying "good sh**" after good shots too.
Without even realizing it, you adapt to your surroundings in unnoticeable ways. Sometimes it's a bad thing, sometimes it's not such a bad thing.But at all times we need to keep in mind that even though we are IN this world we ARE NOT OF this world! Whatever you do, make sure you acknowledge Jesus in all situations, breath, activity, meal, shower, rest, ANYTHING.

Light.
"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but he will have light of life." - John 8:12
Oh man that verse hits hard. How many have you heard that verse? Too many. I understand. How many times have you taken your life and put in perspective with that verse?
This verse is a day to day challenge. Following the light in a dark world is not as easy as it sounds. I have figured out that the days that I spend the least time with God are the ones that I am not happy with. Sometimes I will come to the end of the day and just feel useless. That doesn't necessarily mean I didn't do anything that day, it's just kind of God's way of telling me that I didn't anything with Him that day. I should let you know, those days are down right horrible. If I wasn't spending my time with God, I couldn't have been in the light. If I wasn't in the light, I must have been in darkness. If I was in darkness, What was the point of that day? Trust me, you don't want to spend anymore time in darkness. Make God a habit! Try to include God in everything you do throughout the day, with prayer especially. Encourage others to do the same. When you follow the light, it shines through you as well.

Changing Point
Change is something that most people don't grasp well or can't grasp at all. For some reason, I have always been one of those people but not today. If I look back on the past two months of my life, so much change has occurred. There has been bad, good and great change. I feel like this is God's beginning for me. He has something up his sleeve that he hasn't completely shared with me yet. God has a plan that he is slowly revealing. He is putting me through situations when I have to trust Him and only Him, which has not been the easiest thing. He has also put me in situations where I thought I didn't need Him at all, wrong again I was. As this next step in my life unravels I want to fully trust God. Destroying all my worries and giving every thing I have to Him. This is the only I know I will stay as happy and fulfilled as I am now.
I can honestly say that I have never been this happy before in my life :)
