as you see i am sticking with the date title, in case you read my last blog.

where to begin where to begin...

hear we go...come with me and understand my heart

almost there...

...

alrite so i want to make an impact in my community and in the world (cliche right?) but i seriously do. i want to make a difference, set an example, and live the life paul speaks of, even though its hard. i want to fight the fight and finish the race. take this scripture for example...

2 Timothy 4:7 (The Message)

6-8You take over. I'm about to die, my life an offering on God's altar. This is the only race worth running. I've run hard right to the finish, believed all the way. All that's left now is the shouting—God's applause!

wow! its the only race worth running?! my life an offering on God's altar? intense. not just that paul was about to die did he say that, but since coming to christ he devoted his life. im in a point now in my life where i must take over. for so long i have had my father and brent to help me spiritually when i was confused/didnt understand/mad.etc. now i have to do these things on my own a.k.a. grow up spiritually. im hungry for it and excited. i just had to get this out of me and onto something and blogger just so happened to be the place.

i want to lead, im loving being a youth leader for FOCUS. i cant wait for the day, whenever it may be, to lead youth myself. this being said i am just gonna come out and say it to whoever does not know what i want to do with my life, or may have questions on what i want to do with it. i want to be a youth pastor, its not just my desire, i believe God has placed this in my life. i have the heart for it.i just want teenagers to fall in love with God the way i have, live like jesus lived, and love like jesus loved.

i dont know why i got so spiritual tonight, but hey sometimes i need to.

much love,
