Press Forward No matter the Road

HOW MANY TIMES IN ARE LIVES DO WE THINK CAN I KEEP GOING? CAN I REALLY ACCOMPLISH THIS TASK?

When I First Started

IF YOU HAVE EVER FELT THIS WAY, YOU'RE NOT ALONE, SO MANY OF US FEEL THIS WAY. WE ARE HUMAN, WE ALL HAVE DOUBT, WE ALL ARE AFRAID OF WHAT IS TO COME. BUT I WANT ALL OF YOU TO KNOW THAT WE CAN ACCOMPLISH HARD THINGS... I WANT YOU TO LOOK BACK IN YOUR LIFE AND THINK, WHAT WAS A CHILDHOOD GOAL YOU WANTED TO ACCOMPLISH?
   NOW THAT YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF IT, THINK TO YOUR SELF HOW DID I ACCOMPLISH IT? I KNOW THAT I HAVE HAD A LOT OF CHILDHOOD DREAMS I WANTED TO ACCOMPLISH, MANY OF THEM I HAVE OR I AM STILL WORKING ON. ONE OF THE BIGS ONES THAT I REMEMBER I WANTED TO ACCOMPLISH, WAS TO BECOME A MECHANIC LIKE MY DAD. IF ANYONE HAD A PROBLEM THAT THEY WANTED FIXED ON THERE CAR, HE WOULD BE THE MAN TO DO IT. IN HIGH SCHOOL HE WAS OFFERED A SCHOLARSHIP TO DESIGN ENGINES AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY WAS GOING TO PAY FOR HIM. (THIS IS NOT THE PATH HE ENDED UP TAKING THOUGH)

TO BE ABLE TO COMPETE IN THESE CHALLENGES THOUGH, I HAD ALOT TO LEARN, I HAD TO STUDY AND PREPARE. THIS IS WHERE I STARTED SEEING THE LORD STEP IN TO HELP ME. WHEN I PUT IN THE EFFORT I WAS THEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE THINGS THAT I NEEDED TO DO. WHEN I DID THIS I WAS THEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH A CHILDHOOD DREAM, I WAS ABLE TO BECOME ONE OF THE TOP HIGH SCHOOL MECHANICS IN THE STATE, AS WELL AS HAD THE CHANCE TO WORK ON VARIOUS CARS WITH DIFFERENT MECHANICS... STILL WORKING ON BECOMING THE BEST THAT I CAN BE.
SO NOW LETS LOOK AT THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF THINGS, WHAT THINGS IN OUR LIVES HAVE THE LORD PLACED IN FRONT OF US THAT WE NEED TO ACCOMPLISH? HOW HARD IS THIS ROAD? DO WE HAVE THE PROPER TOOLS TO WORK ON OUR SELVES TO BECOME THE BEST THAT WE CAN BE.
WHAT ARE THESE TOOLS?
  SCRIPTURES, PRAYER, FAMILY, CHURCH, ETC... WE HAVE SO MANY OF THESE TOOLS, WE CAN USE TO ACCOMPLISH THESE CHILDHOOD GOALS, THAT WE HAVE SET WITH GOD. AS I HAVE TO WORK TO BECOME THE MECHANIC THAT I HOPE TO BE. I HAVE HAD TO STUDY AND USE THE TOOLS TO BECOME THE MISSIONARY THAT I AM NOW, IT HAS BEEN A LONG AND HARD PROCESS TO BECOME ONE. AFTER NINETEEN AND A HALF YEARS, HAVING TO BE REBUILT, AND ALOT OF OTHER UPGRADES, I WAS ABLE TO COME OUT HERE ON A MISSION. IT HAS BEEN ONE OF THE BEST DECISIONS I HAVE EVER MADE. NO MATTER HOW HARD THE ROAD GETS AND NO MATTER HOW MANY PARTS NEED REPLACING,  I KEPT PRESSING FORWARD. I KNOW THAT ALL OF US CAN BECOME WHAT WE WANT TO BE AS WELL AS WHAT THE LORD WANTS US TO BE.

When I came on My Mission!

 LET US TAKE THE CHALLENGE THAT IS PLACED BEFORE US AND NEVER BACK DOWN.
