A Season of Growth and Learning

"To everything there is a season, anda time to every purpose under heaven:" Ecclesiastes 3:1

I enjoy taking a look back at all of my different seasons throughout my walk with Christ, and seeing what He has taught me. But this year I can't necessarily pinpoint one specific thing I have learned , so I will call this year a season of immense growth and learning. It has blown my mind how much God grows you when you open yourself up. The experience has been, in a word, amazing.

A few things God has taught me this year...
  • If anything consumes my time and thoughts more than God does its an idol.
  • Sometimes you have to quit talking, be quiet, and just listen.
  • Expect God to do big things inyour life, every single day.
  • God is a father to the fatherless.
  • Amidst the chaos that life throws at you, you can find complete peace in God.
  • If you can't love well at home yet, don't even try to love in the youth group.
  • Ask God to stretch and shape you, stripping you down to nothing but the cross.
  • Joy is better than situational happiness.
  • God makes beautiful things, I am beautiful because God made me.
  • I'm created by God, and worthy of being treasured.
  • Being broken is at the core of what it means to be a Christian, because its then that we can be completely filled with Christ.
  • We aren't promised another breath, so thank God for everything.
  • Unrequited love hurts, imagine how God feels when we don't talk to Him.
  • Holiness is extremely important to God.
  • God's will should be the desire of Your heart.
  • You should long to glorify Christ in every aspect of your life.
  • God always knows better.
