L.I.F.E.
LIFE…Living In Fervent Extremities!
This is how I have been feeling of late because life has a whole new meaning and I’m still learning how to deal with it….wait that’s wrong, not learn how to deal with life, but how to work with it! The biggest things that are on my plate right now have to be finishing up school (WOW that’s weird to say!), figuring out my whole car situation, and PASTORING! Now, that last part is my favorite because it is where my heart is at, but man does it take a toll when it comes to time!
Now don’t get me wrong, I want to graduate to EARN my BA in Pastoral Ministries, but I am currently doing what I went to school to do! Does procrastination set in….YES (hince the date of my last blog to this one) and it is difficult to press through, but I know God has called to gain knowledge in order to do what I’m doing to the best of my abilities.
WARNING to ALL students reading! The following thoughts apply to you! (FYI – fo’ yo’ info– Students = Any person who is in a constant state of learning, whether it be you are in High School [Jr. or Sr.], College [BA, Master's, Doc.], Trade School, Internship, Working at a job or in a career, parenting children [especially 4 amazing boys, one of which has the name Kellen J. Moore, love you mommy] or you are “just” a person that is learning life through various experiences.):
When it comes to doing you personal best at something, i.e. school, I believe that you personal best is not quite achieved by people until they allow God to help give them the strength to accomplish what they have set out to do. The previous statement could go up for debate (feel free to give you opinion in the comment area) and I do recognize great business people like Steve Jobs (Apple), Bill Gates (Microsoft), Donald Trump (Trump Corp.), Oprah (whatever she does), actors (male and female), and musicians because these people have done great and have acheived many great accomplishments, but I think the could have personally done so much more if they allowed God (Alpha and Omega, Wonderful Creator, ABBA Father) to take control and allow Him to help them while they were doing what they were doing, they could have done so much more.
So to all students that are doing some type of learning right now, please remember that God is WANTING you to do your best (with Him) and succeed far beyond our own personal expectation, so do not give up, from one student the billions of other on this planet, DON’T GIVE UP!
