24 years old in 24 hours what will life bring?

Hope you enjoy this song its called 24 by Switchfoot :-)


Lately, Ive been thinking about all the wars,the hostility, and the ups and downs in life. Not because Ive been in a bad mood but because im a deep thinker always thinking about everything. Anyhow, my friends and I that are all in our 20s are so pressured these days to be the best. Its so easy to get caught up in what others expect. Example, Get married,Have Kids, Be in a career,Go to college etc... Where is the peace? We need peace! and if we fail to accomplish all that you expect we would like to know you will be okay. A wise friend of mine told me when growing up your family supports what your doing and will try and help you but once you turn 18 they leave you alone. And your left to fight all the battles alone without the support of your family and all you hear is what they expect out of you. But your friends turn into your family they encourage you and support you and no matter what your decisions are.I really think that a lot of families try to fix each other. When at any  point is it our job to try and fix eachother? God is the only fixer the rest of us need to back off and just help eachother without worrying about the fixing.When im stressed out or having a bad day people will ask me "How can I help? " my response "just pray for me,thank you". Prayer is the best thing we can do to help eachother that way God can intervene and take control of the bad and the good things going on. So much time is wasted on trying to fix eachother and not enough time helping. Lets help!

Im 24 years old in 24 hours what will life bring ? I dont know but I do know God does and he will be there so lets try to focus on the fact that we are not in control God is. Hallelujah!

Colossians 2:8

New Century Version (NCV)

8 Be sure that no one leads you away with false and empty teaching that is only human, which comes from the ruling spirits of this world, and not from Christ.

Phillipians 2:5-8 (NCV)
5 In your lives you must think and act like Christ Jesus.
6 Christ himself was like God in everything.
But he did not think that being equal with God was something to be used for his own benefit.
7 But he gave up his place with God and made himself nothing.
He was born as a man
and became like a servant.
8 And when he was living as a man,
he humbled himself and was fully obedient to God,
even when that caused his death—death on a cross.

Psalm 121

New Century Version (NCV)

Psalm 121

The Lord Guards His People
A song for going up to worship.
1 I look up to the hills,
but where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not let you be defeated.
He who guards you never sleeps.
4 He who guards Israel
never rests or sleeps.
5 The Lord guards you.
The Lord is the shade that protects you from the sun.
6 The sun cannot hurt you during the day,
and the moon cannot hurt you at night.
7 The Lord will protect you from all dangers;
he will guard your life.
8 The Lord will guard you as you come and go,
both now and forever.
