Dear Christian brothers and sisters,

I hope this crazy world of college is going well for you, hopefully it is a journey without many ups and downs. But we all know that certain things are placed in front of us so that we can get stronger. 

Don't be discouraged if you see the world differently from some of your friends. We aren't all created alike so we have different views on things. Take what they say into consideration and try and show them how we live life too. 

College, for some, can be like a mission field. Many can join an organization, sorority or fraternity to be the light to the darkness. Because, after all that is what we are called to be. God wouldn't have put you in that place if he didn't see a special reason. Just remember that when times get hard, and especially when you feel alone. 

Maybe that's not you. Maybe you like to show people God's love rather than preaching it, which is fantastic! Use those skills to show others that God's people can be selfless and serving.

Overall, don't try and change yourself just for someone to like you. Stick to who you are and why you do things the way you do. If anyone doesn't like it, then that's not your problem. You were created like that for a reason, so don't let that slow you down!

Know that you are never alone during your college experience. There is always someone going through the same things you are. We weren't meant to walk this path alone, so don't try to!

Love, 

A fellow sister in Christ
