Wherever You're Going Count God In And Your Plans Will Be Successful

"I'm an imperfect person living in an imperfect world serving a perfect God." (Psalm 46:5)

Everything you do, you must do it for the glory of God. There's no better or higher satisfaction than living every day for Him.

Are you putting Him first? At some point in our lives we've all had a pair of pants that got worn out and started getting holes, so you had to cover the hole with a patch. In reality, you should've just bought a new pair of pants so the whole pair was the same. So here's what I'm saying, stop making God only a patch of your life. He wants you to make Him the whole part. He wants all of you, not just a patch of your life.

Make small goals: Make a goal that you will pray every morning and night, or before every meal. Make a goal to read a devotional every morning or bible passage.

Find a community of faith: Surround yourself with people who will push you in your faith.

PRAY PRAY PRAY: There are people who only call on God and pray when they need something. There are people who will only pray on Sundays and then there's some who will just go weeks & forget they have a God who is eager to hear from them. Everyone is guilty of forgetting a day to pray. Many are guilty of not praying and thanking God when lives are going great, but never forget to break down to Him when life isn't going so great. Believers have to remember that we serve a JEALOUS God. While your out praising everything but Him, that's when He wants your attention the most. The happiness in your life doesn't exist without God.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
