What would I tell a younger me? (Appropriate because today is my birthday:)

The song below really speaks to that question. Have you ever thought about that? What could you, would you do differently if you could tell your younger self a few pointers?

We've all made mistakes, sinned, hurt others and ourselves. We all have regrets. We should have done things differently, better, been wiser and less selfish. 

But we've also missed out some good things: more laughter, big toothy smiles and pure fun. This by not taking more opportunities that come our way.

I would tell a younger me:

   Focus on who God says you are
   Ignore the negative people
 eXtra hugs are always a good idea

  Make the most of every opportunity
  Yellow is not your color:) & you can have long hair and curls:)

  Exist for God's glory 
  You are going to love being a mom!
  Enter college for a degree in education, you will understand one day
  Spend more time being thankful than you do complaining

Fix your eyes on Jesus!

Lyrics:

Hit rewind, click delete

Stand face to face with the younger me

All of the mistakes

All of the heartbreak

Here's what I'd do differently, I'd 

(Chorus)

Love like I'm not scared

Give when it's not fair

Live life for another

Take time for a brother

Fight for the weak ones

Speak out for freedom 

Find faith in the battle

Stand tall but above it all

Fix my eyes on You

On You

I learned the lines and talked the talk 

(Everybody knows it, everybody knows it) 

But the road less traveled is hard to walk

(Everybody knows it, everybody knows) 

It takes a soldier

Who knows his orders

To walk the walk I'm supposed to walk, and

(Chorus)

The things of earth are dimming

In the light of Your glory and grace

I'll set my sights upon Heaven

I'm fixing my eyes on You, on You

I'm fixing my eyes on You, on You 

I'm fixing my eyes 

(Chorus)

I'll fix my eyes on You, on You

I'll fix my eyes on You, on You
