Life

I apologize for many things. I apologize for not being the leader I was born to be. I'm sorry for leading a lot of you away from the truth. I'm sorry for being the example I shouldn't have been. The truth is I don't know who I was being through Sophomore and Junior year. This will be my blog and I will be trying to update it as much as possible as my life goes on. I have had a great wake up call from two people in my life (Jake Allbaugh and Ryan Seeburger) these boys have been a huge part in my life lately. The fact is I have been reminded I would like to be remembered as the God of man I was born to be. For the greatest gift is my Lord. Today I was sitting down with Jake and we just talked about how we can't even explain the prize we get when we get to heaven. We can't even take in how God could forgive us so many times. Think about it, if your girlfriend or best friend lied and back stabbed you as many times you have disobeyed God's law would you be able to still love them unconditionally? It's pretty crazy to think about if you ask me.

Today I just pondered on life. The fact is don't live your life in anger. Why not love the life you were given today? The truth of it all is you mean so much to so many people. Sure we all have our bad days because we live in an evil world. You can always take something positive out of the bad day though. I encourage something that I will be doing every day. Smile or wave to 5-10 people each day because that one smile or wave could save a life. I know we have all had those days where we feel no one loves us or cares for us and all we want is a little love.

This could all mean nothing to you. I'll tell you one thing though it has made me feel so good inside. It has made me want to live my life in a different way. Why not give than receive? We are a nation of brother and sisters so why should we hate on each other? I know for a fact I would not want to treat my sister (Kendra Brown) how I have treated others just because I want to be the cool big man. So I would have to say today's lesson for me is to smile more because that one smile can make someone's day. I'm also going to challenge myself to not judge as much as I used to.

If you would like to take on these challenges as well leave a comment and hit me up so we can keep each other accountable because these littles things aren't easy. Especially when someone goes 65 in the slow lane or cuts you off or runs into you in the hallway or just does something stupid to you.

I hope to keep blogging more and more and hopefully I can touch a life like I know God wanted me to.
