In a moment of spiritual enthusiasm, I changed the background of my iPod to a beautiful picture of Christ overlooking Jerusalem. Later that evening, my friend asked to see my iPod and looked confused when I gave it to her. I asked her what was wrong and she said, "Nothing. It's just your background doesn't seem very you."
I go to church with her every week and am the President of our religious org on campus.

When I get sad, I stop being sad and I am awesome instead. True story.
My name is Maryn Smith (Muh-rin
Sm-ih-th). However, Maryn is not one of those names that can be shortened easily. Unless you take out all the vowels, which sounds a lot like 'Mern'. So my friends always called me Mern. Much later, I was talking to someone who was trying to find me on what was probably a very important list and she asked me what my name was and I said Maryn. And she looked at her list of highly influential and attractive people and eventually asked, "Smith?" I said yes and carried on to my very important business. As we walked off, my friend Caitlan said, "You totally should have said, 'No actually it's pronounced Smeet-er... the 'h' is silent.'"
And that is how I became
And that is how I became
Mern Smeether.

sssoooooo funny. I think you are very spiritual Maryn regardless of what anyone says ;)
ReplyDeleteThe Jared and I laughed out loud.
ReplyDeleteIf someone sees a picture of Jesus on your Ipod and they have to say they did not think it was "very you," is the Lord actually conforming you to the image of His Son then? (Rom 8:29) The Bible says we can take God's name in vain (Ex 20) and that we need to "examine ourselves and see if we are in the faith..." (2 Cor 13:5)
ReplyDeleteI pray it will concern you that you are His representative and yet people do not see Him when the see you.
Spirituality and religion are nothing. It is only Christ that matters.
My wife and I will pray for you...
