The 24th Year

Today is my 24th birthday. I have been so blessed to have been on this Earth for the last twenty-four years. I have learned so much, seen so much and have experienced so many things. One thing I am very grateful for is my relationship with my maker and with my friends who also have a relationship with God. Those people have shaped and impacted my life so much. I am no longer in a box looking out and what others are doing but I am outside the box and going further, reaching further and discovering my potential in the wide world that we live in. Today I did not let anyone rain on my parade. Yes it is my birthday but it is also a day that the Lord has made and we should rejoice and be glad in it. I remember just praising God and dancing in my room just because of how great and marvelous He is. I wish I had more moments like it. I wish I had time. It is said that if something is important to you that you'll make time for it well I plan to make more time for God. It's not just knowing the bible, the stories and what they mean, it's applying the Word to your life. I plan to live more passionately and being a witness. I want others to look at me and see something different and want to know what that difference is and I will tell them it's Jesus. I will continue to work on my testimony and share the Gospel any chance I get. I am definitely prepared to live my life for Jesus. This is just something on my mind today. I had a really great day. Ask people to send me cards. Received a six piece baking set, scarf, art, gummy pandas, earrings, gift card, and yarn. What really matters though is the love that I have received from my friends and family. I just hope I can spend the rest of my life showing them the love that Jesus has put in my heart. Song I'm currently listening to sums up this post perfectly. "Let my words be life. Let my words be truth. I don't wanna say a word unless it points the world back to You." by Hawk Nelson called Words.
