Some things that i learned growing up!

I have learned a great deal of lessons in my lifetime. I feel as if though I could never stop learning from them. Living life has proven to be difficult, yet God is stronger than any of the things that life could throw at you. I have learned from my parents, teachers, pastors, and ultimately God about the realities of life. Anyways, let me share with you all what I’ve learned in life as a 25 year old young man.

Never Give up

            Never give up on anything. Why? Because the things in life that are worth fighting for come with a fight. Name anything that you would wish you could do and I am almost certain that there is a process that takes you from A to B. Guitar, school, blogging, writing, mathematics, college, work, family, life! The list is endless and I’m trying to tell you that the main lesson in all of these things is that you cannot give up on any of it.

            I remember back when I was a kid, my dad always told me to never give up on my dreams. Oh I had big dreams and sure enough some of them came true, but I listened to my dad and ultimately the word of God was the one who guided me to listen to my dad. I know for a fact that if it wasn’t for God telling me to listen to my dad, then I would not be where I am today.

Have more faith in God than faith in yourself.

            Have more faith in God because God can and will do amazing things in your life. There is no short way around this one. I know of the things that God has planned for me, the problem is that do I want to accept it? If I want to accept it, I have to be prepared for anything. Sometimes God can call me to be poor, sometimes God can call me to be rich, talented, tall, dark, skinny, fat, He might call me to be a soldier one day and then the next day a politician. I don’t know what God would want me to do, but I can test what God wants me to do and through testing, I will discern what it is that God would truly want me to do.

            All my life, my mom has asked me to have faith in God and not in myself. I am currently on bad terms with my mom, but I one day hope to regain her trust and ultimately show her that I love her once again. I hope that one day, my mom sees that I truly do love her.

            Even though I am going through this rough patch with my mom, I still listen to the words that she has taught me all of my life. Why? Because I love her, I love God, I love Jesus, and I would do anything for my mom. My mom has been there for me through thick and thin and I couldn’t be more grateful.
