Wishing, Waiting, Wanting.

I wrote this last year when I was applying to Camp Medley. It seems so long ago when I was close to God.

"Try to describe what God is to you."
Most people would say "my saviour", but to me he is more. He is why I am here, why I live, why I love, why I care, why I think, why I am, why I am me. He saved me from this world, he loves me, he is the ultimate role model. He is everything. He surrounds me and comforts me and is truly my only hope.

"What is the most influential part of your life?"
One of the most influential parts of my life is the past. Usually, I would like to forget the past and start each day as if it were the only one I would live. The truth is, the past makes us who we are. Your past does not have to define you. We have no need to bring up the old life since God washed away all of our sins, all of our wrongs, all of our previous life. You are a disciple of God, and therefore you needn't worry about the past, only of what you will to tomorrow.
