Last time, I talked about some of the wisdom a senior friend had given me: relax, don\u2019t freak out, you\u2019ll end up alright. This time around, I want to share some of my own wisdom, wisdom distilled through pure 1,000 days at Cedarville University, wisdom that only somebody who has reached my level of academic experience could possibly have. I\u2019ve also already written about why you should get involved on campus and why you should make friends (though hopefully you already know those things!).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My wisdom today is this: use your time at Cedarville to grow spiritually. I know, this is a bit more a serious topic than I usually do, but it\u2019s the most important one I possibly can hit! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I would say that this is something that I unfortunately neglected during my freshman and sophomore years. I didn\u2019t join a discipleship group (something that has been a great encouragement to me this year), I often skipped chapel or didn\u2019t pay attention in chapel, and I rarely went to church, if ever. Of course, this was pointing to my overall attitude at the time, one greatly lacking in caring about spiritual things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Check out this picture of my discipleship group at Beans-N-Cream:<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"1008\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-54\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777-700x1008.jpg?resize=700%2C1008&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777.jpg?resize=700%2C1008&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777.jpg?resize=250%2C360&amp;ssl=1 250w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777.jpg?resize=768%2C1106&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777.jpg?resize=120%2C173&amp;ssl=1 120w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.cedarville.edu\/studentlife\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_7757-e1542650384777.jpg?w=1800&amp;ssl=1 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luckily, since then, I\u2019ve turned it around, something that was only possible with God\u2019s help. And the rewards I\u2019ve seen since coming out of my apathy have been so, so rich. I\u2019ve grown so much in my relationship with Jesus once I started taking it seriously here at school. The community at Cedarville is so focused on glorifying Christ that it permeates almost every interaction that I have, now that I\u2019m paying attention. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most everybody is encouraging each other to be more like Christ, to follow Christ, and to grow closer to Christ at Cedarville. My advice then is this: don\u2019t be like me my first two years here. Pay attention in your Bible minor classes (especially Old Testament!). Pour into your relationship with Christ from the beginning of your time herel. GO (don\u2019t skip!) to chapel. Go to church. Join a D-Group. Encourage your friends and be encouraged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-259\"
