I have a purpose at this college.

Every Monday and Wednesday morning we have chapel at NGU. Which I absolutey love and always look forward to! However, I became very angry in chapel this past Monday.

I love worship. If its in chapel, BSU worship, or with my impact team, I enjoy it either way. Instead of having a band play, a professor (I think) played guitar and sang a few hymns. Now I am not dissing this man, I want to make that very clear. I don’t know him personally and I don’t know his intentions, so I’m not going to pretend like I do.

But when he was playing guitar, almost the entire group of students in chapel clapped, hollered, and stood on their feet for him. It felt like a talent show. I was furious. The students gave so much praise for this man who just played guitar (and he did have skills, I’ll admit.) but these same students will not even consider giving the same praise to our Savior.

Our God deserves more praise then this man did. He deserves our LIFE, completely sold out for Him! It broke my heart, I wonder if some of these students had a real encounter with God. You know, the kind of encounter that brings you to your knees and weep before the God almighty because of how holy He is.

One thing is for sure. I was sent to this school for a reason. I need to find out why before I graduate.
