Ryan's Journal

Prayer at Killian was puny today - I wonder what that means? I think I'm beginning to have that renewed excitement of faith that we often only see in the newborn. I think it fades. How do we keep MIT Christians from losing excitement, enthusiasm, joy...? It obviously should be there, I mean, we've been saved from ultimate death and given life - what's not to be excited about? Not that I'm Mr. Enthusiasm, because I know I may end up forgetting that wonderful fact later on. "Keep the candle burning," says Point of Grace - I think they meant with the Holy Spirit. Well, I guess it's time to see what the Holy Spirit can do.

I can see why they chose Search for Significance for a book to study. It really is great, hopefully I can start applying some of this stuff - I'll definitely be writing reviews for these books eventually. Like Tender Warrior and Cries of the Heart. I definitely need to get more Ravi Zacharias writings, talk about deep. But anyway, there's lots of good stuff about the deep-down misconceptions we don't even know we hold, plus how to be rid of them. I really do look forward to a better relationship with God - for some reason today it just feels like there's progress being made. Like faith is becoming very real - and I like it.

To clarify the housing thing, I think I'm more worried about division of time. I think I'll like it in House 4, and I'm afraid that means I won't see some people so much. And like I said, I don't operate with just people in general, it's got to be specific people. What if I don't get to see CBF'ers at all next year? And I'm thinking of joining Tae Kwon Do, that will eat up even more time. I'll have to plan to meet people, but...I'm afraid some people just won't want to. Laziness or whatever explanations, I guess it boils down to lots of hopes and fears for next year. I'll have frosh to look out for next term...woah...

Another late night, but this time spend coding - woohoo!
