The Well Will Run Dry.......

I know lately I have been talking about my changes about my life, but the things I have been saying are true. So I have come to realize that I am not the only one who has gone through changes, or will. In my life God has given me so many chances to get my life together, and I have failed every time. Then I thought that there must be a reason why He gives me chance after chance. The first reason is, God loves me. The second is there is a purpose for my life because He could have let me fall by the waste side along time ago. Its sad that I didnt learn this until I was 35, and I look back at all the time that I have wasted.

When do we get ourlives together? When do we after making a mistake, tell ourselves "this is enough?" Well I cant speak for the world, but for me, I am so tired of starting over, and trying to getting it right. So I made a contious decision to quit what I was doing in the past. Through out my time on this earth and these hubs, you have read and have seen my changes. I want to live my life right, so thats what I am going to do. Paul said he died daily to himself because of the sin that lived in him. We are no different then him. So we must do as he did and keep trying. For example, look at what has happened to our children over the past 40 years. They used to have purpose, and fought for rights and freedom. With the accomplishments that have been made, our children have become lazy, and disrespectful. Wanting nothing out of life, and not fighting to live for anything. We have forgotten our fallen hero's who died to get us where we are. So the question is, how many chances will God give us? Each year gets worse and worse.

I once didnt care about my life, or what I did in it. But now I want nothing more then to live. I want to live to at least make up for the mistake that I have made in my youth. I really cant point the finger, because I used to be the same knuckle head that I right about. I want each of you to love your life, cherish it, and dont wait till you are sick or in trouble to seek God's Grace and Blessings. Life is really what you make it, and the worst thing is a talented life wasted. Sitting around saying " I could have changed and did something." I dont know what God wants me to do, but I'm not going hinder His plan by keep hurting people and myself. I am going out on a limb, and just do it. And whatever happens happens. I believe if we dont change, God, the Great lover of man, will hide his face from us. And I dont think He will come back.

When Michael Jackson died, the whole world mourned for him. I didnt. This is why, and I believe this about each of us. Mr jackson, has been busy with his purpose since he was a child. He had done more then any of us could ever imagin. I believe that God fulfilled His purpose in him, and took him home. The world accused him of terrible things, kind of like they did to Jesus in the bible. The world didnt need Mr Jackson anymore....so God said enough. So I take joy in him leaving because God said "you are done."I believe when each of us has done what God created us for, we will leave as well.

Live your life and dont waste one more moment. You dont know when the time comes. And if you dont know your purpose.....then ask God....He will tell you I am sure of that. Thank you for your time in reading this.

Dont let your well run dry, realize and wake up.....do you know how much time you have left?

Me and Ms Quel
