Hey everyone! So today, I want to share with you all some interesting things that are happening in my life.
Before we get into it, let’s have our moment of silence.
At this time, I would like all of us to take a moment of silence and pray to God to help us to become the person that he wants us to become. Ask God to convicts us of our hearts and our minds so that we stick with him no matter what.
Now back to the show
The gym
So, I’ve been staying steady with the gym for about a month.
The longest that I ever stayed in the gym was probably around 6 months.
However, I’m trying to make the gym a lifestyle for me.
I love being healthy, and I don’t want to lose my health just because I started to eat unhealthy and not exercise.
I love it when I can get up early in the morning and get dressed up and just go straight to the gym.
It’s so much fun going to the gym when no one else is there.
I feel like the king of the gym.
Anyways, I used to workout, and my bench used to be at a max of 220 and my deadlift used to be a max of 200 and same with my squat.
I’m not saying that I ever maxed out, I’m just saying that I used the calculators to tell me how much my supposed max is.
I remember I was benching 175 for 10 for 2 sets. And with the calculators, the max would have been around 220 for bench.
I was squatting lighter but I was squatting for more reps.
I could squat 135, 15 times for 3 sets.
At that point the weight is too easy for me and I should’ve increased, but the thing is that I really wanted to make my legs cut, which is the reason why I was going for such high reps.
So, I could squat that much for 15 but I think I could honestly do more to be honest with you. I could squat maybe 145 or 155 for 15 times. So, I don’t know how much my squat should’ve been.
I was hitting leg day a lot back then.
I was trying to hit legs every other day because I was lacking in legs.
But anyways, I’m back at the gym and I’m hitting chest and back twice a week and legs 3 times a week.
It’s a lot of fun.
And I’m having a lot of fun getting my bench press, squat, and deadlift up again.
I honestly just want to look good. I want to be strong and healthy, but mainly I want to look good.
I want to lose weight and gain muscle.
But yeah, on to the next one
My music
I actually tried to join a songwriting association near me. And they invited me again to a music showcase.
I want to attend and at the same time, I don’t want to attend because of a few reasons.
I think that they were fun people to hang out with, however, I think I was expecting something more.
Like, they were there trying to do music as a hobby. However, I was looking to do music as a job.
I wasn’t expecting to get into Warner Bros. But I was expecting to get into the local music scene.
And when they told me that they don’t help people to get into record labels, it was just a big turnoff for me.
I loved hanging out with everyone there, but I don’t know, I might go again. It was definitely a learning experience for me.
I got to see different people showcase different types of music and that was a new experience.
I might go again.
My blog
Just recently, I bought a course because I’m trying to improve my writing and blogging skills.
I bought this course because I really want to succeed in my blog and I am willing to work it out for years so that I can achieve this goal.
I just want to consistently work at it for long periods of time and hopefully get something out of it.
My relationship with God
As I grow closer to God, I see that I was very far off from him in the first place. I see that I really didn’t have a relationship with God. Even though I went to church, even though I said I “prayed”, and did all of the religious things that there was.
God really convicted my heart of something just recently.
And it’s that I lack conviction in him.
I sure write in this blog, I sure pray, but I don’t do the harder things like read the bible or go to church.
I have started to do other Christian things, but I won’t share some of them here.
And God has really convicted my heart with the lack of conviction that I have towards him.
It’s a journey and a half being with God. I am so glad that I am able to share it with you all.
Therefore, I have to pray to God to help me to have more conviction towards him. I pray that God may give me the strength to go to church and live a good life.
I have been praying for something for a while now, but maybe if you guys pray with me, It will help a little bit.
I’ve been praying that my relationship with God would be the most excellent thing in my life.
I don’t want to be a lukewarm Christian. I want to be a Christian that chases after God with fire in his heart.
It’s difficult to start something, but it would be more difficult to not be Christian.
Pray that God may give me the strength to read the bible, go to church, and be a Godly man.
I have been praying for those things, for a while now actually, but the Lord is patient with all of the good things that he gives.
I just pray that he may continue to give me patience in him.
My Job
The Lord has blessed me. The Lord has given me a job and has also given me talent to do things.
The Lord has blessed me with work and honestly it’s because of God that I am assigned to do a few things at my job.
The Lord is helping me.
The Lord is guiding me. I’m telling you that once you give your life to God, God does give good things. God gives excellent things. Trust in God, not me. Trust that God gives good things. Trust in him that he will help you to muscle through each task. And he will give you strength.
The Lord is good, trust in that. Trust in the fact that God keeps his promises because he always delivers on his promises.

If you want to go to heaven, then believe in Jesus and you will go to heaven.
