I went to college and quickly drifted from some of my friends because I never really felt the need to drink or do drugs or have sex. It infuriates me that the devil has such a strong hold on the world that being unwilling to partake in the world, makes you an outcast!!! 
I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and how you resist it (which I hope and pray you do)? |
I don't think I've understood that world view until just recently as I've transferred to a new school and live among freshmen. It seems that a good amount of them want to party, and I feel left out because I don't involve myself in that. But then it's true that I don't need to worry since Christ is with us, although I still struggle with the worries.
I am not sure if I've resisted yet, but I've tried telling myself that everything is alright, and that I just need to trust God. It may not be an overnight thing, but I hope God can lead you and I in the right direction regardless of how we feel at the moment.
Have you tried connecting with the Christian groups around your school? I think that will help you out. I know it makes me feel more comfortable knowing that there are other believers here.
