Life as a Bible School Student

I'm one of of your regular college students...I like my sleep in days; I sometimes procrastinate on my assignments; I love to hang out with friends and play sports on my time off. However my college is different than what you might expect. I'm not studying for medical school and I'm not learning a trade...I'm studying the Bible. Me and my fellow students are investing our time and resources into learning just one book that is hundreds of years old...this is the life I lead...this is the life of a College Student at NBBI

Why Am I Here Anyways

I had one of those stop and think moments today. The kind where a thought just hits you and stops you dead in your tracks. I've talked a little about what life is like here at the campus of NBBI...a little about things I've learned, in and out of classes. But there's nothing like learning things from my favourite teacher. He's been the biggest influencer in my life...taught me more than any other person that I know...His teaching is some of the best you'll ever hear. He's my God. He the first one I speak to every morning and He teaches me all throughout my day. Like I said I had one of those moments today. Have you ever just stopped and asked yourself..."Why Am I Really Here". Think about what you would be doing if you had never come into existence...you wouldn't have thoughts, feelings, care's, life...you wouldn't even exist. When I think that my God specially decided to give me the opportunity to live life, to feel happiness and joy, to trust Him and talk wih Him...it boggles my mind. Why do I life my life for myself when my life is not really mine to keep? It was this thought that stopped me in my tracks today and caused meto refocus...What about you? Do you know why your hear on this earth? Have you considered the God who made you today? It's a humbling thought...but there's no other life like it.
