Looking back is always good to do!

Having had a really unusual past, I do sometimes wonder if you could look back at your past. What would you do differently or would you do anything differently? We’ve all had our little problems in the past and not to mention having to deal with stress along the way. Everything we do weather it be going to work to family problems can cause regrets and even me being a blogger get those questions that we can’t really answer. Although answering the question isn’t really the point it is the part of the journey of discovery, as some would say. We can always come up with excuses to why we do things we do but until we accept our past and say I forgive myself then we may never see the future or get the future that we may want or need.

I’m not saying that we should air our dirty laundry per say but to see it in a different light. We can learn from our mistakes and make something good come from it. Sometimes though people often don’t learn from their past mistakes but those are people who refuse to be truthful with themselves. We really can’t help those who don’t want to help themselves, but we can help ourselves help others. A few weeks ago I did a blog post, Pay it forward: Friday, and this time we are taking a time to look at our past and admit to ourselves that we may need a little more help then we really would like to admit. I must admit this blog post was brought on by two different posts, one was Dolphin Tales and the other one was “Unchain the Name” blog post. I want to discuss some of what I am feeling in this blog post.

Are you Second?

I’ve really been think about my priorities this month and why I haven’t been successful like I know God wants me to be. I finally realized that I haven’t really put God first and I’ve decided in the coming months to work on making my blog more friendly to Christians. I’m going to start calling myself a Christian Tech blogger, but I am not sure how you would classify it. I’ve seen some people talking about that same topic but can we actually define it or do we need to come up with something really new.

Our Past defines us!

Now we all have some kind of past that really has impacted us somewhere or somehow. It really has been something of a working struggle to define my past. I’ve got so many things that I have yet to forgive myself over that I may not be a perfect christian but I do like to think of it as a continual journey. I can’t really say where I’d end up but I do know that ever since I was a small boy, I have always like technology and I know in todays churches we are always going to see Ipads, Iphones, and other tablets that are used in looking up Bible (Affiliate Link)passages and thus will always be in need of Christian Tech support.

Our Present is Upon us!

When I ask myself what I am expecting to do in the coming years, I always am looking at what I am doing now. It doesn’t matter what I am doing but it is something that will affect me tomorrow and the next day. I know I will never be perfect but I’m not going to create a post that no one will want to read but it will be a interesting journey to what I have learned over the years. I also feel like I want to be a writer but am unsure of how to better accomplish this. I guess God is calling me to do something but I have yet to figure out all the details but I do know this blog will be a big step in the right direction.

Our Future is yet determined!

I really don’t know what the future will hold but I am going to take it as it comes. I can’t say anything else but that. Do you know your future? Are you ready for it? These are all questions that we are constantly asking.
