The Toughness of Life

"People, places, and things were never meant to give us life. God alone is the author of a fulfilling life"- Gary Smalley

Many things this past semester at school just made me want to give up. My grades were awful, I, sometimes, felt as if I had no true friends, and the girls just weren't digging me. I talked to one of my friends one day about how I just didn't feel needed anymore. His words to me, "You know you are here for something, you know He wants you here, or you would be gone already." That got me to thinking, you know what, I really do have a wonderful life. I don't come from a broken home, I don't have financial issues, I have no health problems, and I have the most important thing in life, Jesus Christ.

That time in my life made me realize, why am I just sitting here pouting about my own life? I didn't have to suffer on a cross while people mocked me. So I will challenge myself and any readers out there, each moment of your life should be dedicated to celebrating the life of Jesus, Serving Him, and Sharing Him. Sharing Him would have to be the most important, because, how would I, or you, know anything about Him if it hadn't been shared with me? So, go out there and celebrate this wonderful thing that has been given to you!

"For whoever finds Me finds life and receives favor from the Lord" Proverbs 8:35
