Everyone's life is a class and we all have something to offer that can
teach the world about ourselves as we see the reflection of each other
in our stories, trails, joys and hardships. We all our teachers in one
way or another and we all influence each other in some way. As I put a
close to the year of life of 28 I have done a lot of thinking over this
last year and what I have really found to be true is that we all are
searching for truth. We might call it different, or get to it different,
or feel, come up with a theory, idea or state of being; but we all are
looking for the truth. So if you were to ask me what my life class would
be at the ending of 28 years on earth it would simply be: Jesus is the
best thing that has ever happened to me. I have had a mother who always
gave her best to me and now as an adult the more we grow together I can
really love her life and by doing that love her more in our way. I have
had a grandmother that put prayer and holiness in me and taught me to go
to God for everything and I have seen the beauty of her strength as she
put her 1st born child in a box and then lowered him into the ground. I
have witnessed the consistency of my grandfather and his love has
liberated me to be whatever I want to be without explanation to anyone. I
have buried my father who while he was a piss poor parent, he was a
great friend to so many. I have been to England, Mexico, and over 10
states. I have sat at the feet of Dr. Albert Mohler and Dr. Phil
Roberts. I have loved, loss, been loved, loss love, hurt people and been
hurt. I have had joys that I cant explain. I have lived in Moberly,
Louisville, and Kansas City. I have lived. But with all of that when I
look over the entire story: Jesus has been the best thing that has ever
happened to me. When I was saved but lost he stayed. When I was sad and
tormented in my soul he stayed. When I wanted him to leave because I
didnt feel worthy enough to walk in his love he stayed. He has stayed
with me the entire trip and has always been faithful. So whats your life
story? What do you reflect? What do you aim to please or accomplish?
What are you teaching? The best thing you can give and strive to do is
to love because it liberates the person to be themselves in whatever
form God has created them to be. So thanks for the bday wishes in
advanced but my biggest gift would be that you would get to the truth
and walk in it. God Bless you and I love you for real....
