This is my first year at college. I had no idea what to expect. Would I be the same person? Would my faith stand the test? Would people like me? I have only been here for 5 weeks, but I have already discovered a lot about myself. One thing is that I am so much more confident than I was in high school. I am not as shy as I thought I was either. Also, I have met so many amazing people. I have an even greater peace about the school I chose than ever before. I could not imagine being anywhere else. This is where I am supposed to be.
As to my faith, I am discovering that it is growing. I have heard a lot of stories about people back sliding at college and I am determined not to be one of those people. With each new challenge I am pursuing God even more. He placed me here for a a reason and He knows that I can do it. While I am here I am taking this opportunity to dig deeper into God. I want to learn as much as I can about Him.

“If you are living and breathing your purpose has not yet been fulfilled. No matter what youhave done or what has been done to you, God has a plan for your life.” – Renee Swoe.
I am not totally sure what God has for me in the future, but I know that I haven’t done it yet. I am beyond excited to see what He has planned for me while I am here and after I graduate. And I discovered a new song that I enjoy so much….

I love reading other peoples’ college experiences. I just started college today and it’s uplifting reading about a fellow freshman who’s adjusting well to this whole college thing
Best of luck to you for the rest of your year!
