ONE - TWO - SIX

My mother once told me, “Son don’t just marry a kind woman to be your wife. Pray that she will be a good mother also. Many people forget that part. I dearly know you’ll be a good husband as well as a father.”

What this someday

Dream.

sometimes i wonder if in a previous time, you’ve ever passed by someone you’re close to now. like what if your best friend now, you passed by them at a grocery store when you were 5 and didn’t know. or like you passed by your future soulmate at a popular tourist attraction somewhere 10 years ago

you’re gonna graduate, you’re gonna find a job and you’re gonna be happy. life will go on, days will pass. just breathe. it’s going to be okay.

me: wow i really love and care about this person and i have no idea how to express that to them my brain: here’s an idea: be extremely sarcastic and possibly insulting towards them me: perfect. what would i do without you

Life before God was cool. I lived a good life. Did nice things for people. Was happy TBH. I did not come to God with a desperate need to have my life changed. But that was the problem. I never knew I needed God until I met Him. I never knew that the deeds I called “good” didn’t really matter at the end of the day if I didn’t even know the One who created me with such purpose. My testimony may not seem all that exciting. Some people meet God while they’re stuck in an addiction, or near death. That didn’t happen to me. I met God, and honestly, truthfully, it changed everything for me in the best way possible. Now, I am able to recognize the joy He puts in my life, and instead of calling things “coincidence” I am truly able to see Him at work in everything. He is real, and He loves you. I pray that you too, would have a personal encounter with Jesus. You won’t know the joy that comes with knowing Him until you experience Him for yourself.
