Jesus, I know that You are for me.
Yesterday one of my friends told me it seemed like I became a Christian for Chris. That made me...really upset. But I guess to the people that I haven't talked to that much this summer...it can be assumed. He told me it seemed like I gave Buddhism up for Chris. Firstly, I didn't give up anything...maybe time to spend with him. But I was never a devout Buddhist to begin with. I definitely changed my friend group within the last few months...but that was just a few months of confusion and learning what kind of friends I really wanted. He said along with the friend change...there was also me being so interested in religion. But...that wasn't Chris. That was going to AO and hearing other people speak that made me read more...so many of my other AO friends were encouraging about reading the Bible too...so just more assumptions on the friend's part.
It's just hurtful. But they can assume what they want. I mean. I'm glad he told me this...but it made me realize that soo many of my other friends will think the same thing. But I've realized the only thing I can do is live in a way that glorifies God and makes others know that God is most important to me. If they can't see that, I just need to work that much harder.
But to end...I get angry when my mom talks about a guy having to convert religion for me...I think that's incredibly dumb because it's not for yourself but centered around someone else. I would never want to convert religions for Chris...it's so fickle and why would I do something I don't like myself..
I know that Jesus is the only one who can fully satisfy me.
