More to life........

There is so much more I could do if I had the chance to upgrade my music equipment. first I would get an AC-33 acoustic busking amp and a better singing mic.





next an ipad so I can have all my sheet music on it.



Note: even though I would love to upgrade some gear, and it costs money etc. I am happy to use what I currently have mentioned in my post click here. maybe even find different and unique things to do with what i have already.

Maybe its time for me to start rethinking some of the things in life and step out and Trust God for something More than I already have.
It is really easy to be so comfortable where we are that we hold ourselves back. Safe in what we have in life and what we know. At times I wonder if there is more to life than what we, can so easily, make it.

I encourage you to stop and look back over your life and see where you are, what you have already done, then think about what you always want to do / where you want to be. and look at the steps of how you can get there.

A balanced life: - Focus on God

There comes a point in life where we as humans need to look at ourselves and see if we need to make any adjustments to things we are doing. there is a saying "if you keep doing what you always have, you will keep getting the same results".
I find it easy to get distracted with things. I want to do things my own way. I can easily get stubborn and be full of pride. These things come naturally to many of us living in this world.

I believe this has something to do with what what we focus on, spend allot of time doing.
So what do you spend your time doing most in your life and where is your focus.

It is easy to let things slip when our focus is not in the right place.

1. Computer usage: I need to stop spending so much time on my computer, and websites such as Facebook, youtube, etc. although computers and these websites, and even the internet itself, are not bad at all it is how I have come to use them. I can easily spend most of the day on my computer, from when I get up until I go to bed.
2. Lack of sleep: the time I end up going to bed tends to be any time from 10pm-3am as I am distracted. I am not getting enough sleep and am overtired, cranky and shitty. 
3. Neglect:  as my focus is out of balance important things dont get done, such as my housework, chores, eating habits, my garden etc don't get done, or I struggle when doing them. 
4. Generally: I have been starting to become very unstable and as my focus is to much on other things things are becoming unhealthy. 

so in life
Don't focus:

• on what you don't have 
• on what you cant do
• on what others expect you to 
• all your energy on things to the point that they become an addiction, or like one, to you. 

Focus on: 

• Things that are good for you
• getting enough sleep
• eating well
• living a balanced life
• being positive
• de-stressing yourself 

In the bible it says:

• don't worry about things (Matthew 6:25-34 click here)
• seek first the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33 click here)
• be happy and, think on good things (Phillippians 4:4-8 click here). 
• keep all Gods commands (Proverbs 7:2 click here, John 14:21 click here)

Hope this helps you to realise, as I have, that you need to reflect on your life and check if your focus is in the right place.
