It's Time to Impact Someone

I have been thinking lately, about my calling. What God has stored for me. Yes, the Bible does say, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." found in Jeremiah 29:11. It seems like it is so hard to pinpoint your calling. That you jump from one area to a totally different area.. Such as: Senior Pastor to Childrens Pastor.. Or maybe even to be a Missionary. Well I have decided that, yes God does has a purpose for your life and mine.. That if your iffy about what area it is in.. You should go with the calling of: TO IMPACT. Easy enough. I feel like my calling is to Impact someone, sometime, some place at any given time.. You see, God does have a calling and no matter what area it is in.. Your going to Impact someone. Doesn't matter if they are ten or even thirty. You will still impact them. Doesn't matter if they live in Indiana or even Honduras.. You will still impact them. So when are you going to start your mission and impact someone.

Are you against abortions?

There once was a girl and she was pregnant.

MONTH 1
Hi mommy. I‘m in your stomach. It is very comfortable in here. I‘m not ready to leave yet.

MONTH 2
Mommy, I‘m still very small, but I can‘t wait to meet you!

MONTH 3
I‘m starting to grow! Before you know it, I‘ll be big and strong.

MONTH 4
I‘m a girl! Aren‘t you proud? I can‘t wait to be your little princess.

MONTH 5
Guess what mommy? I have hair. I really like it. It is soft and fine.

MONTH 6
Mommy, why are we at the doctor? What is that mean man saying? What is an abortion? What is that needle for? Ow! Ow! Mommy, stop him! It burns! I can‘t get away from it! ... Mommy, I‘m an angel. I met this nice man named Jesus. He told me what an abortion was. Why don‘t you want me? I thought you loved me. I love you. Jesus told me that He will love me and raise me to be big and strong.

I'M SICK OF JUDGEMENTAL PEOPLE AND ALL THEIR CRAP.

Have you ever realized that maybe, just maybe, there is a big picture out there and God wants you to impact someone else?

Yeah. I know. Me? Why me? Man!

This night I felt that God wanted me to do something. I don't know why me. I even discussed this with people: “No this is not, I repeat NOT God.” Did God have an eye opener for me!

I was texting my friend and he was talking about being a father-to-be and all. How the world looks down on men who knock someone up and they make judgements thinking that they are not good enough.

I told him, “You are going to be a great dad. It takes one person to change someones life.” I then said good night and went straight upstairs and spent forty minutes writing him a letter.

As I began to write this letter, I started to cry. I know what happens to kids whose parents are seperated. I'm sick of the crap this world has to offer. I explained what a child will go through if all he ever sees and hears is arguing and fighting. I told him that I know that he will be a great father. And that he will never, ever be his father.

I'm sick of people judging others because of how their father or thier mother acted. It is sick, and it makes me sick.

I'm sick of seeing kids in foster care because their parents would rather get high or drunk. What are we doing to this nation? We are ruining it! Here we are supposed to save lives, be influencers, but all we do is mix the world and christians together. How sickening! I'm sick and tired of all the judgemental people in the world. And I bet 95% of them are christians — the same christians who are supposed to be changing the world.

Why aren't we God fearing any more? Why aren't we reaching out? How are supposed to save people from hell when we are on the same boat as them? WE CAN'T.

I have a passion for kids, and I'm sick and tired of seeing them treated like crap. I'm sick and tired of no one reaching out. I'm sick and tired of all the crap that people are feeding kids. It makes me sick, and I know that no one is doing anything to change how the world looks upon people.

As I'm sitting here crying about how our world is, I can't help but ask...

WHY?

well.. its demolition derbie time.

Hold up. did you see that.. no way.. yeah.. demolition derbies.

demolition derbies. are loud and only the best built cars will survive. its kinda like survival of the fittest.. but its in cars. the driver wants their car to be the best. because you either come out a winner or a loser. there really isn't a in between. the whole point of this is to win. you build your cars to the rules, show up to the meetings, and then its game time. derbies are taken seriously. no one whats to lose but reality struck and only one person comes out on top. yeah you can place.. but its not the same. demolition derbies is not just a race. its a lifestyle. one thing is known.. that this is not a jump and go "hobbie!" people spend weeks working on their car. its their own. their car shows their personality.. its them. these derbies are really for people who are passionate about this, because its loud and the experience is really amazing.

derbies have their own rules but not many. easy to follow but if you don't then your out of the game. PASSION is what these derbies are about. not everyone has a passion, its about winning. most people spend money that they win to buy new parts and cars for the next race. the tracks are all different.. the bigger, the more money.. more people, more money. its really simple.

New year so a fresh start.

It's 2010 and I have decided to make a huge change in my education. Most teens aren't really into improving their learning abilities. But over the past few months I have been inspired to make a change. Well for starters, I am going to be reading many Early American Lit. and American Lit. books. By doing this I am hoping to expand my ability to focus on true art. By reading these books I am hoping to open more doors in my future. So the first books on my list are: UNCLE TOM'S CABIN by Harriet Beecher Stowe, THE SCARLET LETTER by Nathaniel Hawthorne, MY BONDAGE AND MY FREEDOM by Frederick Douglass, and THE JUNGLE by Upton Sinclair. These four books are just the first. I'm going to blog about what I have learned from each book. Most are Anti-slavery and I believe that being able to read about what they went through could change my life. Most teens would probably find these books boring and useless. To make my curiosity grow about Early American and American Lit. would be Mr. He was my Early American Lit. teacher at BNL. In this class, I learned the basics about different authors from the time period of 1700's to 1850's. Learning about different focuses of English besides the basics really is an eye opener. In fact, this could change your life. By that I mean, you look at all angles of life, not just the present or future. But the past, which most of the time.. is forgotten. School is about your education that usually gets blown off. I consider this time at a preparation to a better future. In EAL, I learned so much about Anne Bradstreet that I probably would of never learned, unless I was forced to do my best, as her being not someone who died but is still living. Like I knew her. But thats the basic idea of my new goal. To improve my education starting with EAL.



(Barnes and Nobles has a great deal.. buy two books get the third free. The books I listed were available but there were many more. And that was the only decent picture I could find.)

2009..

The year is ending. and im still alive. looking through a mirror on my life i really wonder if i have impacted someone. I hope so. but its hard to tell. yeah 2009 is the year. but wait.. im purty sure the year is almost over. well.. this could be a bummer. Thinkin im not sure if I touched anyone. I hope that someone sees me in a different way. Not a blend in.. a wanna be. a fake. but unique and wow inspirational. maybe that is a huge step. but it can be done. I know for a fact that last year I was totally different. Not the brightest. but someone who was quite and so bizzare at the same time. and 2009 came along and I made a choice to be different. that I was going to be the best. not better everyone else. But better than I was. the best inspirational, God-fearing, God-loving person. and maybe I didnt make those but I was going to try. Yeah, your average teen. but not really. cause I got a lot to say. and its not stopping in 2009. Im a life changer. Ive been told may times that God has a calling on my life. and I believe it. Been told that when my shadow hits or goes past someone they will be healed through God but because he chose me. Spoke many times about A HOT HELL AND A COLD CHURCH. and now im wanting to speak about GOD-FEARING OR GOR-FORGETTING. the time is ending but untill then im gonna be great. maybe to someone a hero.

Inspirational Hero

So there are many people in our life and maybe someone we don't even know. But these certain people have powerful lifes. Not that their lifes are great. But what they have been through is amazing. They have this God given ability to over come any obstacle. Inspirational.

On Tuesday December 15, 2009, Tom Kirkman spoke in my Early American Lit class. As he spoke and he talked about his journey through life.. Made me think of am I using my life to the fullest? Funny, how it takes some person you don't know to help you discover what you really should be doing throughout your life.

As he spoke, he mentioned where he was born, when he moved, and the normal information about himself. He spoke of his books he wrote. Which really shows that you can do anything, if you try and most people aren't willing to try. My class was given the chance to ask questions and as he answered each question I really took in every word. I look at Tom Kirkman as an INSPIRATIONAL HERO. He has shown that you can be an individual and turn out okay. Most people believe that they have to blend in. Be the average joe. But Kirkman has shown that look at me, Im unique, smart, and I've turned out alright. He has accomplished so much that any person could look at him and be like wow, what a hero. But most kids don't. They see Kirkman as an old guy that was asked to speak to a group of kids. And sad, this is what the world has come to.

If you want to have a good conversation, Kirkman is the person to talk to. He has spent his whole life making powerful steps throughout where he went. He has so much on his plate that it would take days to really take in everything. He can quote everything. He holds so much knowledge that it is unbelievable.

As Kirkman said, "God is almighty." I believe this statement. He is a inspiration. A hero. To many greatful people. I believe that after hearing him speak, anyone could be moved or maybe inspired. I was.
