”By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.“
2 Peter 1:3 NLT
Growing up I looked at what a lot of other kids had. As a child I watched what others would have and the different things that they wore. It got worse as I got older. Middle school was where I started to notice things but reality hit different. I was looking at what others had but what they didn’t have. By the time I got to high school my outlook turned from what they had to what I’m glad I had compared to what they wish they had. It wasn’t spoken verbally but it was loud enough to be heard clearly.
HERE IT IS…
Growing up we didn’t have the finest things but we sure did kill a room when we walked in. We didn’t have the lastest and greatest new things like shoes or name brand things. But I will keep my childhood the way it was compared to being bought things and thinking it was love. I will keep the having all the things I needed and more rather than name brand. Because I learned a long time ago that there is one name that matters. He said that if I use his name when I pray he will do it. In Jesus name…. We will have everything we need.
