Andy.
So on the first day i walked into the chapel thinking yayyy another spiritual emphasis week. On account of my past spiritual emphasis weeks haven't been so great. but over all. I liked it. Andy was my favorite thus far. The first day was my favorite. That day was my favorite due to the fact that it really made me think. He posed the questions and my brain responded to them. He ask how do we know the sky is blue? and my mind said wow what if what he is asking throws off my entire beliefs. becuase if i cant even tell what color the sky is... How can i prove that god is god. that hes real. that hes mine.. that he died and rose again. So at first i was afraid to ask but then i realized... this dude andy is more than likely smarter than me so i stuck with him. then he ask how do you know your alive? and instantly.... i reached for my neck to check for my pulse. and. and. and. it was still there. thumping away as usual. i was still warm rigamortace hadnt set in. so i began to think this andy dude is a nut job. why are you asking us these things we arnt stupid its common knowledge that the sky is blue and that im alive. But yet something inside of me said once again.. ASHLEY THIS DUDE IS THE SMART ONE... so i tried to keep following along once more.... As he then ask the most contraversial question yet. How do you know there is a god? ooooooo nooooo heeee diddddddd'nnnntttt! But he definately did. so in whipped out my bible and read like 20 million verses and said AHHH HAA i was right gods there im not that stupid. But he said to look at signs and reasoning out side of your bible for ways you know gods real..... and low and behold i couldnt. by this point in time i dont know whose crazier andy for thinking so deeply about alll this and posing these questions..... or me for not knowing these answers to these out there questions. So i went through the rest of my day and still to this time wondering how i know the answers. and i have come to the conclusion yeah its ok to ask those questions... but i willl for know stick to my childlike faith of just trusting in his word and loving him all the more as i go throughout my days and faith. so that all for now folks :) byee. p.s. mr. medenhall...... I STILL DISLIKE THIS WHOLE BLOGGY THINGGG!!

I'm sorry you dislike "this whole bloggy thing", but you did a good job on this one! (Aside from the lack of capitalization/punctuation!). It sounds like you've begun to think hard about these questions, and I pray you keep searching until you find your answers. Don't give up!
