A piece of my heart

A piece of my heart is still with you!
by you my heart was ripped in two.
Stuck with the pain and sorrow,
while you live life like there's no tomorrow.
Getting over one you loved is extremely hard to do,
but it was an easy thing for you.
You act like all the memories meant nothing.
But to me, the memories mean something
Something that will never fade,
I think about you everyday.
Someday I will be over you,
but until then, I'll always love you!

The Purpose of Life (edited)

The Purpose of Life
By: Robin Mize

“We have not come into the world to be numbered; we have been created for a purpose; for great things: to love and be loved,” as stated by Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Everyone has a different purpose. Whether it is being a youth pastor and preaching the Word to teens or being a talented singer and bursting into songs of praise, God has a plan for us all. I may not be one to get up in front of a crowd and preach, or one to belt a tune, but God has a plan for me here on earth. To this day, I still am unsure of what exactly my purpose is.

I feel as if everyday has a purpose and everything happens for a reason. My hope on earth is to positively influence my peers and spread the Word of God. One of the main ways to reach my goal is to become a Chemical Dependency Counselor. For a while now it has been a dream to go to college in that field because one, I am passionate about helping people overcome chemical addictions.

Throughout my life, I have been around many people who are/were chemically dependent. People who were very dear to me have passed away due to drugs and alcohol abuse, and I want to help change people’s lives before it is too late. Through Chemical Dependency Counseling, I can bring lost souls to Christ. I hope to help improve the lives of many. If it were not God’s plan for me to have the career of Chemical Dependency Counseling, I would find another way to touch the lives of many. Being a strong Christian and showing Christ through one’s actions is a way to bring people to Christ. If that is what God’s plan for me is, then that is what I’ll have to do.

A goal is the result or achievement toward which effort is directed. I do not have many, but the few I do have are important. Some have what is called a bucket list, a list of things one wants to accomplish before they die. I tried to make a bucket list and failed. I have main goals though. My number one goal I want to achieve is to bring someone to Christ. My second goal is to strive to be the best Christian I can be.

People are put on earth for a very important purpose, although most do not know Christ and do not know the meaning of life. Some know Christ; they just have not found their purpose yet, like me. But I continue to journey to find my purpose and to fulfill my goals with the grace of God. I hope that it be his will. Come to think of it, I am more certain of my purpose than I thought. If I just follow my goals and live for Christ everything else will fall into place.

The Purpose of Life

By: Robin Mize

It is very important to think about the purpose of life. Everyone has a purpose. Everyone has a different purpose. Whether the purpose is being a youth pastor and preaching the Word to teens or being a wonderful singer and singing songs of praise, God has a plan for us all. I may not be one to get up in front of many teens, or one to belt a tune, but I have a significant purpose here on earth. To this day, I still am unsure of what exactly my purpose is.

I feel as everyday has a purpose and everything happens for a reason. My purpose here on earth is to positively influence my peers and spread the Word of God. One of the main ways I want to spread the Word of God is to become a Chemical Dependency Counselor. For a while now it has been a dream to go to college in that field for many reasons. I am passionate about counseling people who are chemically dependant.

Throughout my life, I have been around many people who are/were chemically dependant. People who were very dear to me have passed away with the cause of drugs and alcohol, and I want to change people’s lives before it is too late. Through the Chemical Dependency Counseling, I can bring lost souls to Christ. I hope to fix the lives of many. If it were not in God’s plan for me to have the career of Chemical Dependency Counseling, I would find another way to touch the lives of many. Being a strong Christian and showing Christ through one’s actions is a way to bring people to Christ and if that’s what God’s plan for me is, then that’s what I’ll have to do.
