So I became a Christan about two months ago after a long and intense search for the Truth. Its so hard for me to believe how much my life has changed in just that short amount of time, in ways both uplifting and painful. Probably the most apparent change is how my friends and I have drifted apart. In such a short amount of time, we have gone such different directions. There are natural reasons for the drifting-- one got married, another a serious girlfriend, etc.-- but even on top of that a spiritual separation has opened up. And the gap between my new sensibilites and their old ways has split us like I never thought possible. I do have a sense that there is a purpose to all of this, that these trials will bring increased stability. And I know God will answer my prayer for people who understand my commitments to Him. I just hope it happens sooner than later.
I had to get that off my chest.
