Let me start at the beginning:In January, I was in a friend’s room.  She lived on a different floor.  The chat was going fine with her until she opened up her closet and there was a bottle of Smirnoff.  I felt really bad for her, so I decided not to write her up, I just told her to get rid of it.  A few weeks later, I couldn’t go to sleep.  I knew the decision I had made was completely wrong, so I told the friend that I would have to write her up, two weeks later.  She was so gracious and completely apologized.  So, the next day I told Jill.  In reality, no one would have EVER found out.  Ever. Well, unknown to all of you, I almost lost my job.  I credit my being here completely to God, and the people praying that I didn’t get fired.  So, I go on probationLast week-Also unknown to you guys, half the staff had been cutting corners on rounds.  You know those great things we do to keep you in line?? Pretty much what happened is we split up the building so one person does one half and the other does the other half, which is not really the way you are supposed to do it.  Well, because I was already on probation… So, central housing decided to give me the boot.  But, that’s not the end.  I know some of you guys know that I am a Christian.  And you very well know I could have gotten away with some stuff and no one would have ever found out.  I guess the point I am making is there ARE consequences for our mistakes, and that even people who you think in general are ok people -do make them, we all make them.  We aren’t perfect, and deep down everyone has a conscious, no matter what you believe.  What makes us just know… even when we are a little kid, what is right and wrong, even in secret?  I believe we didn’t just happen to show up on this earth by accident, because if we did, what would give us a right and a wrong, I mean if we were living for nothing then why not harm others and break rules????… Nothing is there to keep us accountable?  But, we do know what is right and wrong, even without people telling us.  It makes sense that there is a God, and it makes sense that he would send someone like Jesus to save us.  We aren’t perfect, of least me, as everyone on campus visibly sees by me getting the boot.  But it’s ok, ‘cuz it cements my reason for Jesus: I’m not perfect I need to be forgiven and accept Jesus and the power of his death in my life, cuz he did die for my sins.  I know some of you have heard it on a movie, TV, whatev…but it’s a powerful message.  People get up in arms about Jesus.  Ever watch a debate about religion?  It always squares down to Jesus.  For God did not send His Son into the world that He might judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:17.  Saved from what? Isn’t that like a movie we have with Mandy Moore?  Saved from ourselves.  Saved from hate, saved from our own sins and mistakes…It’s not a message of condemnation, it’s a message of Love.  Everyone makes bad decisions every day! It’s realizing that your aren’t perfect, and accepting that you need God, you need Jesus in your life, and committing that life to him.
