5 at 25.. #LifeLessons

SO I turned 25 exactly a month ago and well.. it was awesome! I had a super week prior to my birthday and my lovely friends took me out for a lovely buffet lunch that I thoroughly enjoyed so.. wooptywoop! Earlier that day though, I was on the phone with my mum and she asked me to write about the day.. you know.. how it went etc.. That evening as I sat to do that, I felt a usual prompt that I was going to write something..just not what I'd intended to.. God asked me to write about my life - what I had learnt to this point. And so I did.. And this is me sharing with y'all..
 
The 5 key lessons I have learnt in my 25 years on earth:
 
 
1)  Your past does not (have to) define you..
 
At any point in time, you can choose to do things differently, aim for different things and be different. Choose to do this and then follow through radically.
 
 
 
2) God is a personal God.
He is as real and near to you as you allow Him to be.
NB: You want all of Him!
 
  
3)Opportunities are all around you..
 
They don't always come in the packages you have imagined or when you've planned for them and they rarely come in announced!
 
Use every one of them to to learn, increase your knowledge, experience, qualifications - to grow!
 
 
 
4) Be involved!!
Take every opportunity to be involved, to help, to serve, to give: In this way, you are able to network and be a blessing to others.
 
  
5) Jesus is enough - Truly.
For every need and situation, He truly is enough.
 
I am content with whatever He has in store for me - for tomorrow, next month, 5 years from now - He has been faithful before, He will be faithful again.
