Snapshots

Our lives are made up of snapshots. In my 26 years of life, I can look back on my life and see some of my snapshots.

A snapshot of me in middle school would show you a young, funny, overweight, insecure, hopeless romantic wishing one day that he would find a girl who would fall in love with him. You would also see a young christian who believed he was called to go into ministry.

If you took a snapshot of me in high school you would see a young kid whose mother was ill and dad worked a lot, a kid who experimented a lot with drugs, sold drugs, and ended up graduating with a 1.6 GPA.

When I was in middle school and high school, my snapshots told me that I’d never find someone who would fall in love with me and I would never amount to anything in life.

Choose to Change Your Life!

^“But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.” -Joshua 24:15

Most people who aren’t living up to their potential want to change. They want to live a great life. They want to make great choices. They want to succeed. Often, they just don’t know how, so they settle for a mediocre existence. I’ve been there. Have you?

In life, you will have a million and one reasons not to change and live the life God intended you to live. Thoughts like, “What will people think? What if I’m labeled a hypocrite? What if I fail? What if I look stupid? What if I lose all of my friends? What if my family disowns me?” constantly hold you back in fear.
