"All The Things That Could Go Wrong"


“Children are happy because they don't have a file in their minds called "All the Things That Could Go Wrong.”
― Marianne Williamson


It's funny being at an age between a child and OLD and having a little bit of both in me. I realize the more responsibilities I've taken on in my life the more I act like a mom. "Don't put that THERE!" or "No it has to be done this way," "Adam, can you take out the trash right now?" because I know if I don't be specific he'll wait to take it out 5 days from now.

I say all these things and worry all the time because I've experienced not being prepared and having to deal with the consequences.

And for all those moms out there, you have more than one person your decisions affect so I empathize with you. But just a reminder, who really has your life in their hands?

So lets be like a child (something God said we should do) and live life instead of worrying what will go wrong with every step we take.

Epic Statement: The Proof is In the Valley


"If a man cannot prove his religion in the valley, it is not worth anything."

Along with the "Without Boundaries" series I have decided to also do "Epic Statement" which will be a quote I heard that I want to share with you guys.

So today's is by Oswald Chambers. I went to dinner with my aunt last night and she really challenged me to step up in my faith and she recommended reading My Utmost For His Highest. This was a quote that was on the website today. If you want to read today's entry of My Utmost For His Highest, click here.
