You are onto God's plans for your life, and as we know these are AWESOME plans. My thought to you is not meant to be funny, but I will say it, 'GET SOME'. You know what I mean. Go get you some, however you can. You hit a wall, so what, see if God will knock it down for you. You get lost, ask Him for a new path. Only you and our Maker can tell if you are where you should be, and many times we don't see it until later (20/20 cliche). However, I would agree with a lot of what Donald has said before; your story is a great one when it constantly takes you to the foot of the cross. That is where God wants us most. In the meantime I say, use your strengths, talents, and gifts to do what you love and what you get joy out of, and 'Get Some' any way you can. <br /><br />Thank you for your words, reading this was a gift for me.<br /><br />SiamiMatt Siamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255464205473657157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226182307496642076.post-25655809357568077552012-01-25T19:13:14.690-08:002012-01-25T19:13:14.690-08:00Stories are great. The good ones don't always ...Stories are great. The good ones don't always end the way we want them to but along the way something is learned or someone grows. Friday Night Lights is my favorite sports movie. Lots of great examples in that.<br /><br />There are many time in my life i wish things had gone different. I wish my teams won a national Championship. I wish i had a different job etc... but if those things happened then some of the things i love about my life (story) would not have happened. Like sharing God lessons with other athletes that are struggling with the same things as me. <br /><br />Our western view of success is not always helpful in evaluating our life (story).<br /><br />Sorry if i went to long.<br /><br />Grace and PeaceMike Shearonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915649644482389419noreply@blogger.com
