What matters is not the duration of your life, but the domation of it. Not how long you lived, but how you lived.
Abraham was old, Jacob was insecure, Joseph was abused, Moses stuttered, Samson was codependent, David had an affair and family problems, Elijah was suicidal, Jonah was reluctant, Peter was impulsive and hottempered, Thomas had doubts, Paul had poor health.
That is quite a variety of misfits, but God used each of them in his service. He will use you, too, if you stop making excuses.
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesian 2:10

Well you don't have to believe me but Jesus, said to me through the Holy Bible, to tell as many people as I can. That the whole bible story was a fabricated premeditated lie. That one should ask themselves why would the people god entrusted and gave secrets to, deny his son. Its impossible that god would have allowed it. Therefore the whole story is discredited and Jesus said to me the people will react the same way as the people that allowed my death.

God wants me to help those who believe the bible is about Him to see that He is not a jealous and vengeful God. He is not about hate and bigotry. He would never flood the earth. We does not care if you eat shrimp or sleep with a person of your same sex. He wants the world to know that there are many roads to Him and He does not care which road, or no road, that you take.

When I became a parent I accepted that I was now the guardian of two lives and I had to do everything in my power and abilities to raise them and protect them the best I could.

Yes I have....
But no one prepares me except me! I AM the only one who can do my work that is given to me by knowing the truth of my own nature and what I am a part of.
What it is, is currently too hard for me to say.

I don't think I am fully aware of my assignment yet.
I may have to live long enough to die (leave this body), before I know if I have completed or failed at the assignment.
I think the first step is to "know thyself".
I accept the assignment....but I don't yet know what it is.
