some guys thrive under pressure. not me. i find that i always do better
when i'm relaxed. when taking exams, i dislike talking to ppl before or
after, because it just gets me all jittery, and then i feel this looming
pressure to compete, lest be considered less than average...failing. for
me, the thought of failing really obstructs the natural flow to do my
best. it pertains to everything in my life though, in sports, even in
relationships.
but i'm glad the gospel doesn't take a worldly approach to salvation, of
having to perform to get in. it simply speaks of faith, that God loves
me...that He wants me to trust Him w/my life because of a life He gave
for me. talking about relaxed. now i don't have to compete, i can
allow the natural flow of love to be expressed in me, that speaks of
divine intervention and amazing grace. gosh, if i could only live all
of life like that. at least, i'm growing toward that...as salvation not
only satisfies the burning question and desire for eternity, but also,
affects all other areas of my life in this present age...
