You Lifted Me Out--Chris Tomlin

I haven't posted in quite a while but in the spirit of leaving some sort of memory, I will start again. Plus it will be very fun to read later in life [: Reflect on the best years of my life, yes? Anyways, I will be leaving for Penn Preview day tomorrow after the sermon and will arrive at 2-3ish! I'm super excited for this trip and am still a little shocked that my parents are letting us loose to travel to Philly by ourselves (haha protective parents--way too many stories about this topic). I will definitely post pictures! We are also meeting up with Andie, who's going to Temple, so that should be really fun [:
Anyways, I've noticed recently that I have become more attentive to certain attitudes and actions. I have also become more aware of my own weaknesses and have worked to overcome them. For example, I do have the tendency to complain, which is necessary at small doses but usually complaining solves nothing. Although, I have been complaining more to myself than to others. Also, I have found that I do notice when people gossip or trash others. Okay, I understand that you dislike a person and you have every right to. I don't mind if you want to rant [: In fact, I encourage ranting because it's an outlet. But what I do have a problem with is those who act out to the people they dislike. It is fine if your dislike for them is simply speaking out but actively breaking them down is simply wrong. Poor decisions lead to poor actions lead to regrets later in life. Think it through. Your action that seems satisfying at the time may very well become a regret later in life when you truly comprehend the childish nature of that action. And those people who are watching this occur will disrespect you more. Speaking from experience.
