.... is shyness???...
today i came to the conclusion that it is, if it makes you not reach out to people or just i guess take an interest in than yes it is, my friend Matt says its not and that i am just trying to overcome my shyness and want to find a reason why i should. He claims that God creates people shy but i have yet too see how that is glorifying to Him. A quiet spirit or quietness maybe of actually for sure but shyness not really. I guess i am on some levels confused on this... I feel that sometimes i come across as a snob and that's not something i want. Maybe its just me not being content in who God made me... i don't know i guess i am struggling with this issue now so if y'all have any input let me know)
Well i am making friends and i don't hate it here anymore:) that's a good sign right??? Classes are still going well. Halloween is coming up and i am pretty much excited. I shall be a basketball player lol...with an Afro:) so what else shall i share? oh yes i went to this thing called A call to worship Sunday night at msu and it was so great just to worship God and feel the weight of the world fall away, and then Caitlin my roommate and i then sang worship songs on the walk back underneath the stars it was really beautiful and just calming i guess. I am also still working on the whole contentment issue but i think i am getting better thank you God! so ya oh and on sunday after church Caitlin and i went to our first home away from home meal with the couple that "adopted" us. I really enjoyed that, they are very neat people. It didnt feel really awkward which is always nice ya know? well i have class tonight and some homework to do actually.... I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hopefully i will keep more up with this:)

I thought this was thought provoking. My opinion - shyness is not a sin. Shyness is a character quality, however if you are using shyness as an excuse for your fear of man (or man's opinions) then it is sin if it's holding you back from what God has called you to do. But that is just my two cents :o)I think God gives us some apprehension to complete abandon with all people to protect us from giving away to much of ourselves to people who don't deserve it .. that whole pearls to swines thing. Love you Chicka! Jes
