Aside from dancing and being intrigued with the beauty and expression from the art form, I have another area of my life that I try to dig deeper into and explore every single day. My daily growth as a Christian is something that I find to be the biggest part of my life presently. I was raised in the church, but strayed away from it all throughout middle school and high school. I got really involved into the party scene and felt like this was what living was all about-having fun, getting drunk, and living under no one’s authority. It wasn’t unitl I entered into college that I began asking myself, “Is this all there is to life?” On the surface I was enjoying everything that my peers were engaging in, but on the inside I wanted so much more. As a senior in college this year I still find myself on a roller-coaster ride with my spirituality. While I’ve toned down a great deal since high school and freshman year I still want so much more of God in my life. My New Year’s resolution for this year was to make sure that I go to church every Sunday. Even if I go out the night before I have to make sure that I’m walking through the church doors by 11 am. So far I’ve kept my promise to myself and I don’t see myself faltering at all. This little step that I’m taking will ultimately help me acheive the relationship with God that I have yearned for the majority of my life. Walking daily with God is something that I will continue to do and while I am not fully where I want to be I know God’s working on me and I know he’s definitley not done with me yet…
