If it sounds like a journal entry its because they were written as such. These are the insights that I had over the school year:
For the reflector and the thinker
one of the Lord's most gracious acts is upon my mind. For those in the world should find their self in utter distress that they are wholly avoiding. Our mind should not find itself at an end. For the mind at the end of the road truly distresses over the simple and desires mystery. Alas the mystery that is God is a gracious mercy upon the mind of man. Our mind has need for God.
added note: it is Satan's wish that we not enter into the kingdom of God therefore we are distracted by an unquenching thirst for the things of the world and blinded to the precipice before us. keeping our minds busy so we dont have the chance to scratch at the walls enclosing us wondering if there is more.

Praise God that pelagianism is not true. For it is not only fallacious to the point that it is hopeless. But if this were allowed then our works would be like they say in Scriptures "dust on our heads." It would be efficaciously selfish. For when we would be doing the "good works." We would only think of ourselves and in this where would our joy be? Praise God this is not true for it is not only hope we have but joy in service. For joy in service is for the will and purpose of God who in truth wants to see us become His children.

Latin roots of "confidence"

Confidence in God is the antidote to worrying.

Praise God!
John 14:6
I am the way the truth and the life
Jesus was and is walking truth. The church is the body of Christ therefore the church is (supposed to be) truth for the world to see.
The closest accurate philosophy a world without Christ can offer is existentialism. Without Christ philosophy falls apart and life is absurd and hopeless. All truth and hope is found in the person of Jesus Christ. Philosophy without Him falls apart. He holds all together. Col 1:15-17
That is all I have recorded during the school year.
