This life was meant for us to learn from all the things that come along in our lives. We will make many mistakes in our lifetime many will be the same mistakes. An endless cycle of falling in the same traps. I have been growing to get to know different people in my life and I have learned that they seem to make the same mistakes over and over again. I am not one to say that I don't, but I am finally at a point in my life where I am tired of falling for the same old traps and feeling the pain. I mean if we aren't learning from what we are doing wrong in our lives then what is the point. With the end feeling of this overwhelming pain all the time, and we are blind to seeing that we are causing it. In the past couple of weeks I have decided to look back at all that I have been doing through this year and make a big change. I had to let somethings go in my life which was very difficult but I stuck to my guns and continued fighting living without them. A couple of years ago I found something that has stuck with me for years, and that is just from someone saying to me that you have to continue pushing forward.
It is a spiritual war out there and we aren't always prepared for the things that come our way. Well make yourself prepared! I never really tried. I just let things come at me and I dealt with them the best that I could. Which wasn't very good. After awhile of dealing with things the pressure began to pile on. The weight got heavier and heavier it continued to increase until I couldn't stand on my own two feet. I saw myself leaning on other people for their advice and their encouragement. I found that this entire time I had this strength, this will to never give up inside of me the entire time. In one aspect of my life; like working out, staying in shape I found to be very hard because I would do enough, but I never really pushed myself. I felt really lazy for the first time in my life, and sitting on my butt and eating unhealthy food all of 2011 didn't really help me. In fact it has made this whole "getting back into shape" thing a lot more difficult. Being healthy and strong may not mean much to some people, but sense I was in High School this is how I lived. It was truly a shame and a set back to realize that not doing this for a year had hurt me so much. So now it has been over two months of working out and having the strength to push myself once again. This is truly an amazing feeling. I have lost some weight, and still working towards a goal, but I am much more active now. This is a mistake many people make when they get older, they get lazier. They use the excuse that they don't have the time. Which I also notice with their relationship with God. Shouldn't He be number one over everything in our lives? Work maybe important, but if your working to much maybe it is time to get your life back on track. The track where God is your focus. There are plenty of other little things that we can change in our lives to make them so much better. Stay focused, and don't give up when times are rough. Please don't be afraid to put all your trust in God because as soon as we do things do change for the better. Keep pushing forward even if your sinning just continue on, don't get caught up in what is behind you there is nothing good for you back there all the good stuff is right in front of you.
---Jeremiah 29: 11-14 "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile."
