2021

Hey guys,

I know today in the last day of 2020 and a lot of people are excited about that. The truth is, we have no guarantee that 2021 is going to be better than 2020. Honestly, it might be a lot worst. But instead of focusing on everything bad in that has happened in this year we should focus on things we have learned and how God has taught us through hard thing. 

Through 2020 God has taught me to love my family more and that life really is short. Recently we had some friends die in a car accident. Just late one night they where driving home from a date night and where killed by a street racer. Alive one second and then gone the next. There 4 children didn’t think that when there parents walked out the door they would never see them breathing again. When I heard the news I was just in shock. I never really met them but my parents talked about them often and we got their family picture every year. Life is short. The Bible says our lives are like a vapour. Here one second and then gone the next. I am just very grateful they where followers of Christ and one day I will get to see them. I want to love my family in a way that if they where to leave this world unexpectedly I would have no regrets in the way I treated them.

God has also taught me that big dreams from him aren’t a bad thing. As most of you know this year my family helped with a movie. It was awesome seeing God work. The director and producer of the film kept quoting a quote by Hutson Taylor. “There are three stages to every great work of God; first it is impossible, then it is difficult, then it is done.”

I was like wow! That really is how God works. He wants to take the impossible and make it possible for his glory and honour. God has also given me my own dreams and has shown me how he can be honoured and glorified through them. Because that is are calling. Isn’t it? As Christians we should be honouring and glorifying God in everything that we do. My dad has always been SO great at that. My dad will tell people about Jesus anywhere and everywhere. Sadly I have to say I have been embarrassed. I have gotten embarrassed when my dad is standing in the grocery store loudly talking and waving his hands. And that is SO wrong of me. God has been teaching me so much! Even today. I am truly so proud of my dad. He loves the Lord and is leading my family. Is he perfect? No. But I am proud to call him my dad. I am so happy I can now say that.  

Wow! This post got deeper than I thought it would. I am praying that God will use 2021 for his glory.
