    Life can be random at times, sometimes we’re happy, sometimes we’re not. But through it all I know that throughout my ups and downs, God is always there with me, He’s always been. He’s always guided me on which way I should go and corrected me on my mistakes, and I always do my best to start my day with the one who created it in the first place.

One On One Quiet Time

    I always read God’s word after I wake up and I pray to Him, I praise Him for who He is and His word guides me and gives me wisdom, helping me grow in my faith in Him, He doesn’t only guide me though, He also reminds me on how much He loves me and everyone else, sometimes I feel isolated but this is another reminder that I’m not alone and that He’s always there for me even in my worst.

Watching Youtube

    Youtube is one of the apps I usually use to pass the time whenever I’m bored. I find all sorts of stuff there on my for you page. Some are about Jesus, some are about youtubers playing games, some are about other stuff. The videos I find about Jesus actually help me with my faith in Him because His word corrects and reminds me of important stuff during the right time. I find youtubers playing horror games funny because of their reactions, I think it's silly and funny. I also watch documentaries about animals for fun and also because I find them interesting.

Bonding With Friends

    I like talking with my friends too, they can be funny at times and they’re generally fun to be with. I love my friends, they almost seem like family. I think I tease my friends too much at times. I like teasing them but I should also remember to keep my boundaries. I also remember how they like to bond, they sometimes get so physically aggressive that they hit each other as a sign of affection which I find funny. I also have online friends on which I talk to through social media apps they can be very funny too.

Cleaning The House

    Sometimes I don't really feel like cleaning the house but it's a reminder that God doesn't want me to be lazy. I fix my bed and sweep the floor, usually in the afternoon. I usually don't stay in my bedroom all that much, I think I stay in the other bedroom no one ever sleeps in. I think I just like it quiet. I also occasionally wash the dishes, my grandma is usually the one who washes the dishes but I wash them when I need to. I take longer though, because I want to make sure I get it nice and clean.

Work On Personal Projects

    I also work on personal projects, whether with friends or just for myself. The projects I work with my friends are games that we develop using minecraft as a base. I find it very fun and I believe it helps both me and my friends develop our critical thinking skills and our problem solving skills. The one I work on alone is my business selling foods, well maybe not entirely alone, my mom helps me. Although the business has taken a great fall because I was banned from selling food at school. I plan to seek permission from the cashier soon but I have yet to see what their response is. I like my business and I thank God, my mom and my friends for helping me throughout my business.

Ending The Day With The One I Started It With

    This is one of the ones I struggle to do sometimes because I end up sleeping before praying to God. I used to do it frequently but I guess I just need to make more time to pray instead of being on my phone. But when I do pray to God, I thank Him and praise Him for the blessings He's done for me. I also pray about my concerns and about my friends and family. I seek guidance because sometimes I don't know what to do. But God has never failed me nor will He ever fail me. He said He will never leave me nor forsake me, so have I vowed to never leave Him either.
