This isn't about the holiday what so ever. Its actually about being grateful. At times i really don't feel like i have a lot of motivation or encouragement. I have to say the last 2 days have been different.
Last night my friend and mentor Magdiel called me out of the blue. He was just leaving his bible study. He lives directly west of me on the other side of the state in a town called cape coral or as the homies call it "da cape". He told me i was on his mind and he wanted to encourage me. Completely out of the blue. We talked for a bit about a few different things but overall it was a call of encouragement. It was uplifting to know that i have it like that. Cause at the beginning of my walk I didn't have anything like that at all. Maybe it was a lack of relationships with other believers or maybe just that i didn't know that in a persons journey with Christ that having that connection with other believers is essential. Well...needless to say that conversation was awesome.
It was today that i was just sitting around playing fifa 07 when my sister texts me asking me how the job hunt is going. I was a little down about that cause i was pursuing this job that looked somewhat hopeful and they hadn't called me back. After i placed 2 calls to them with no response. Well i to be honest i didn't expect the response that i got from my sister. She told me to keep on working at it and that God has an awesome plan for me and that i will see that. Me and my sister have always gotten along and she was an integral part of my younger life thru middle school and high school. She's NEVER told me something like that. Not sure why but with family it always seems different cause talking about it and actually doing is 2 different things. See with my family they dont talk about love they show love. They dont talk about encouragement they give encouragement. When i speak of family i dont only talk about my immediate family i also talk of these people that have become an important part of my walk .
Dream big and live large
