Off The Beaten Path

I want to live different.

We live in a society where we are not people, we are consumers to sell products to. I don't want the American Dream of a nice job, a nice car, and a nice family. It seems that the more people try to live for that the more stressed out and disappointed they are with life.

Where do I start? I am not sure what I am good at. I am not sure what my passion(s) are.

I want to do more with my life. I want to make a difference. I want to do something that will leave an impact. I want to hear God say "well done my good and faithful servant" when I get up there.


I watched a sermon done by Pastor Perry Noble and he gave 3 words that would help us live a blessed life; misery, motivation and realization.

Misery- when you look at the world what breaks your heart. When you discover your misery you will discover your ministry.

Motivation- God is going to call you to something that you do well and enjoy.

Realization- If you don't let your past die, it won't let you live.

If we constantly look at ourselves, we will miss what God brought us here for. We are here for one another. God gave us all at least one gift and it's our job through Him that we use it and not waste it. Will we fail, yes. Will we screw up and make mistakes, yes. Will we do things that are extremely hard and want to give up, yes. All of this WILL happen but when these happen we should learn from them and let them be in the past. We shouldn't dwell on them, EVERYONE makes mistakes and bad choices, we are human. We should work hard now in our passion so TOGETHER we can have a brighter future. A future filled with joy and happiness.
