Faith

I was going to write a blog about Animal Dreams, but I decided that I'm just not feeling it tonight. I'll save it for another day.

This past week was really crazy.  I had so much homework and not enough time to do it.  Surprisingly (or maybe not) I felt much calmer after attending euchie on Wednesday.  I hadn't really felt that kind of calm from going to church before.  It really made me happy.  I've always gone to church religiously (haha) but I have never really felt that kind of calming sensation before.  Even though I still had a bunch of homework to do and a minimal amount of time to do it, I felt like it was more doable.  Which it was.

Faith is such a funny thing.  I often think about how much different my life would be if I had not grown up in a Christian family.  If I had grown up Muslim or Jewish I would most likely believe that is the correct way of thinking.  It makes me wonder how I am supposed to know that I really am believing in the right things.  That is where the faith part comes in.  I need to have faith that the teachings I grew up with are true.  Sometimes it is difficult.  There is no real scientific proof that says any of it is true and often scientific learning differs from what the Bible teaches, like the theory of evolution.  I chose to combine the two.  I believe that God created evolution.  I read the book Angels and Demons and really liked it because it used science to prove the existence of God rather than proving that God did not exist.  I thought that was really cool.
