first of all, i have been spending way too much time on myspace. check it out sometime www.myspace.com/ryan_jones now here's my entry God's timing is amazing. I can't beleive how unworthy I am. I just took a break from homework and just trying to think of how blessed I am. I have a house, a job, a car, an AMAZING church, and most importantly I have Jesus in my life. His love is so amazing. No matter what you go through, he will always heal the wound. Losing my mom made me realize a lot of things. I've learned so many things this year. 1. People always stab you in the back... but no matter how much you get hurt, you can still depend on Jesus for everything. 2. Don't take friendships for granted. I know I do sometimes and I'm trying to work on that. Talk to your friends as much as possible. Cause even when the guy/girl is gone, they are still there to the end. 3. Don't take your family for granted. You never know when they'll be gone. You aren't promised tomorrow. Family should be a big priority in your life. Right next to God. 4. Everyone has problems so why not try to influence others around you to be postive about everything. I could be crying my eyes out right now cause of everything that i've been through this year, yet I am happy and excited about what God is doing in Birmingham. Lot of you will call me crazy but I don't care. I quit caring what others think of me along time ago. If you like me, you like me and if you don't well then you just don't. If you have a problem with me, confront me about it. Don't talk to EVERYONE else about it and not confront the situation. 5. I've learned that no matter how busy people are, if they want to be your friend and make time for you, they will. If every time you call someone they say "i'm real busy" for like 2 months in a row, then you know they don't particularly care to see you. 6. Life is too short to focus on the past, focus on the future and don't look back. Learn from your mistakes and try not to let them haunt you in the future. This use to be a HUGE problem for me. It's tough but just do it. Thats it for me for now. I must go study now that i've been procrastinating so much.
