The Goal of many is success. People do not go through life hoping and trying to fail...they go to succeed. To win. To gain.
My friend, Ticket, is an example of this. Many of you have heard me talk of Ticket, in recent posts.
Ticket is an Athlete. He plays Sports...Competitive...Active...Fast..He is what he is. He tried his best an even if he cannot do what others may be able to do, he does what he can.
Ticket is also a Singer. He has a good voice, and knows how to harmonize. He sings everything from a Solo to a choir of 20+. he is confident, and he sings his testimony to God when he can. He tries his best.
Ticket is also a Musician. Guitar, Piano...He tries his best.
Ticket is a Writer. He can write essays, stories, even poetry. He writes what he feels. He tries his best.
Ticket is an Artist. A creative mind..he tries his best.
I am not Bragging on my friend. I'm not holding him up, because notice I say "He tries his best". It is not HIM doing it...its God. God gave him all those gifts, and many more...Just like he gave us all gifts, but we have to be willing to let GOD use them. Our Goal is Success..We try our best to do our best...and our best I not how good we do, but how much our heart is praising God.
Ticket is strong, manly you may say, but also soft and kind.
I have another friend, Sham, we will call him.
Sham cannot sing, very well.. but he tries
Sham cannot draw, very well...but he tries
Sham cannot play an instrument,
Sham cannot write.... he cannot do a lot of things...but he succeeds, because he tries.
Sham is an Athlete...and at that he does his best, and gives the glory to God.
God made each of them like that, God knows what characteristics each person needs, and what gifts they will use to serve him...but giving you a gift is nothing if you don't use it...you must Try Your Best. even if you fail, you have failed for God...but that is otherwise known as Success. You see success is not whether you win or loose...but whether your Glorified God through the Gifts he has given you.
Try Your Best. Your Gift is from God...So use it WISELY and Success will follow, not matter WHAT!
Dear God,
Thank You for every persons gifts, and the un discovered gifts. bless each person who reads this blog.. help them find their purposeful gift to praise You.
Your Lost Child,
Safe Promises,
