Im going to get as cliche as it gets, and say that when you're younger you just want to be older.. make your own rules, set your own times & go where you want to go, and then you get 90% of that when you get older and all you want is to be younger, to have your child set of wonder, and excitement & freedom and innocence. As if it's all taken away when you get older, thing is; you have control over how you look at life, on your relationship with Jesus Christ, on your child like sense of wonder, and ultimately your mind set.
Part of growing up, involves your spiritual growing & that can be a hard journey to face as well. Because as you're growing older, you get more aware of what your savior did for you, you become aware of everything and thoughts and time and excuses get in the way of how much love you show Jesus..
Over time and arguing with yourself, you begin to see that Jesus is The Lord of your life, and He guides you through every single season, never hesitating to carry you through it, and letting you learn what it's like to rely souly on Him.
Knowing that this year is one of the biggest years of my life is scary, I've applied to college, gone full time, really began to save, set new life goals, and in the meantime I've grown up so much in the past year, having to learn from mistakes, seek The Lord and learn of His love for me, and exactly what He did on that cross for yours and mines lives. And I love Him so much.
“Jesus replied: ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.'” (Matthew 22:37-38)
To seek The Lord and find Him within your heart, is an incredible feeling and overwhelmes you when you come encountered with Him as your Holy Father.
To know Jesus and grow spiritually as you grow up, seek Him and you will find.
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7
