Trying to figure out this thing called life can be difficult. There are 365 days in a year, 8760 hours, and 31556952 seconds. These numbers represent time and where we can be in our lives. Days pass and time continues to go are days numbered. We have to realize that eventually are days will stop and are clock will no longer tick. I wonder what I might think in my last moments did I live my life in purpose, did I help others, did I follow the life God wanted for me, would I remember petty moments.
As we enter into this new decade, I realized how much my life has changed in 23 years. At the age of 18 I got baptized and found Christ, at 19 I almost failed out of college due to partying and drugs, at 20 I was lost and didn't know who I was, at 21 I got help, and started picking up the pieces, at 22 I began serving in my church as a youth leader, I bought my first bible, and at 23 I celebrated my first New Year's sober at Passion 2020 conference. I'm writing this today to let someone know that no matter what stage of life you're in your clock is still ticking. I used to think I was too far gone to get back on the path to following Christ. I remember forcing myself to get ready for church on Sunday mornings after a night long of partying smelling like left over alcohol and drugs. I look back and thank God for giving me the strength even when I didn't feel like it. God lead me back to him without me even knowing it. So, in this new decade get that bible you've been wanting to buy and allow for his words to turn pages in your life….
