I had to stay in another city which
is far from my hometown for more than 5 months for a review, in relation to my
major. I lived in a dormitory together with some of my classmates and gladly,
new found friends.
I always feel hesitant whenever I go
together with my classmates in college because I felt that I don’t belong in
their group. They have their own lives and are living a far different life than
mine. I chose to stay at my room than to go out with them, not because I don’t
like them, but because I can’t adjust to them.
At some point in our lives, there
are really moments when we feel like we do not belong to the group of people or
even a circle of friends, because we can’t relate to them or we have some
personal issues with some of them. I do not beg for their attention anyway
because I am more comfortable with a few true friends.
I also went to a church for
Christians and from the moment that I entered their door, they never made me
feel different or alone. I always have someone that I can talk to and during
worship and praise; I really feel the sense of belongingness.
Just as my life with Christ, I
always feel that I am a true daughter of the Heavenly King despite the reality
of being a sinner because He offers me forgiveness every single day of my life.
Aside from that, He never fails to amaze me with his blessings which I never
really asked for but was given to me.
Being in Christ’s family is
difficult because we have to be Christ-like; however, God still accepts me
because He knows that I am doing my best to live a life away from destructive
habits and always challenged to be an imitator of Christ.
I may not belong to a group but I
will always belong to Christ adoptive family.
