I write songs and post them on facebook I hope one day I can get famous off of them and I will donate nearly half of my proceeds to christian charities, the genre is contemporary christian lately I have been practicing guitar alot and I am working on my singing. I had no idea I could even write songs until december ‘08. This new talent has flipped my world upside down. Before I wanted to be a chef but no I am apparentally really good at this. I am in the process of reading your book and I was just on a retreat last weeekend April 24-26 where the lessons were based on your book and confrences. The 24th was my birthday and I felt moved by God on this trip I just dont know what to do well thanks for taking the time to read my post if you do I hope to come back to this blog again and see the response it gets.

This is a topic that has been on my heart for a long time. Thanks for the great article!
I know I am just one person, but that God can use one person to enact great changes in the world. Just look at so many people in the Bible!
Many people have used the example of Queen Esther to encourage me to pursue my dreams about changing the world because Queen Esther was just an ordinary girl God placed in extraordinary circumstances to bring about a major change in policy in the Persian empire.
I have dreams; I have hopes; I keep praying that God would use me some big way to bring about change in this world. I am not throwing around the word “change” lightly, either. The Lord has been guiding me towards law school to pursue civil rights, and I think that is one steppingstone on the path towards enacting some change in this world for the glory of God.

If i could change the world I would let everyone see that acting like we can’t do anything important in the world is just an excuss to not trying to make a change. This article made me think of some songs by a famous musician named Jack Johnson. He is an incredibly down to earth guy who writes songs that speak to me and should speak to everyone.This was a great article by a great girl who sounds alot like Jack. The songs are called Where Did All The Good People Go and Sitting, Waiting, Wishing, chek them out.

you know when i was 18 i had dreams of becoming a nurse and going to college then it seemed liked all i kept hearing from people at home was your too dumb and stupid and i lost hope in myself. so i finally had to move away from my dad at te age of 18 and i moved to illinois i spent almost 2 years there and it was so amazing how God worked in my life. God placed me right in his path. he helped me break down walls i had bulit up on the inside and deal with my past hurts. well now i am 20 years old and i have moved recently to jacksonville florida. i will never forget what God taught me in illinois he taught me how to forgive, how to be paient, how to love people that hurt you, and most imporantly how much i need christ in my life. i ll tell you i wish i knew about christ in highschool i wished i kew how i could of changed the world. i wish someone told me to stop living for the low expectations in life and start living a fully satisfiying life.
i think it’s wonderful that you gys are doing this because i have worked with a youth group at my old church and it saddens me to hea and see the struggles these kids go through. i know how hard life can get and i hope none will ever have to experince the struggles ive been through. i guess what God has ultimatle taught me was that he has brought me through the darkest times of my life to have me stand up and share what victory he has had in me. i guess when i was a teen i lived a low expecation life but now i want to live boldly and extradorinary life for Gods glory.

I am pleased that young people are positively motivated. Reading this post however, I am reminded of the difference between speaking the truth - my own truth - and speaking about other people’s shortcomings in order to make a point. I have found that I learn the most and grow the most when sharing the truth about my own experience - keeping the focus on myself.
