MISFIT
Life as a single young Christian woman is rewarding, but it
is also difficult at times. My story starts as young girl who was raised by two
Christian parents. My father has been a pastor for the last 18 years of my
life. My parents provided a strong foundation for me as child into adulthood.
Even though I ventured out into the world to experience what I thought I was
missing out on, I had a foundation to return to. I have reached a point in my
life, where I’m seeking a relationship with God for myself. The most difficult
challenge is that there are not many saved young Christians in my community and
surrounding areas. Perhaps, they do exist and I just have not met their
acquaintance. When your life consists of partying, drinking, and having fun you
usually do not have a problem with finding others to partake in those
activities. However, when it comes to
serving the Lord you will notice a difference in the type of crowd that you
will attract. I am truly grateful that the word was instilled in me as a young
child. Without it, it would be very difficult to survive as a Christian in
today’s society. Nevertheless, I do not
let that discourage me. It often requires that extra effort to seek out other
individuals who share the same interests, beliefs, and values that are based on
the word of God.
