Challenge

Sorry for the delayed update, I have been busy with the holidays and getting back to school. I want to wish a Happy New Year’s to everybody.  One of the presents I got for Christmas was a devotional. This is the first year I will be doing a devotional and I am excited to see where it leads me and how it changes and strengthens my relationship with God. I’ve gone through my fair share of times when I question whether or not God is there, and wonder how much he actually cares about me. One day I started listening to a Christian radio station and the songs on there just bring me so much more happiness and hope than any other radio station does. I love hearing the stories they share about people who have lost their way and turned to drugs and alcohol along with other things to help them ‘heal.’ However, these stories always end with them turning back to God. These are stories that I wake up to when my radio plays and they help start my day off right. I’m challenging myself to stick with my devotionals and to listen to Christian music whenever I have a chance. However, I know that it is also important to be quiet and spend time with God by listening to nothing and just listening to what He is trying to tell you. I want to start sharing my thoughts on the devotions with you next week, and will hopefully get another post in this week. I don’t want to sound too much like a teacher in my postings, because in all honesty I am just a teen and I am trying to grow in God just as you all are. I want to make this more of a place that people look too when they want help and so by sharing my thoughts on my devotions I hope to do just that.
