Episode 44 "Love Yourz"

On this episode I talk about loving the life you have. Society is always pressuring us to "level up" and I myself spend entirely too much time longing for whats next and I too get caught up focusing on trying to be successful. Today I heard this sermon where Steven Furtick defined success as having allowed the fruit God put in you to come forth. I thought about that today and began thinking about my field and how the industry defines success and I realized I can't allow the music industry to define my success. Getting millions of streams doesn't mean I fulfilled my purpose. My purpose could be in the 1 stream of the right words in 1 song that was going to save 1 life and impact an entire family. Yesterday I was snowboarding  on the bunny slopes and decided to go to level 3 and I was quickly humbled and found myself back on level 1 realizing I still had a lot to learn and that level 1 was a more ideal place for me to do that learning and I thought about how life can be like that as well. Sometimes God may be protecting us from the dangers on a level we aren't prepared to face so he allows us to remain at level 1 because we still have more to learn there. Today I want to encourage you to appreciate the level you are on because there are blessings to be found there and lessons to be learned there. I hope you found this message to be helpful and as always, appreciate the blessings!
