Even when we have nothing, we have everything.

It’s Christmas day and I just finished watching one of my favorite movies, Walking On Water. The underlying meaning of the documentary is that if you put your faith in the Lord, anything is possible; that once you build yourself upon this firm foundation, there isn’t anything that you can’t overcome. This is just so real to me, and sitting here, on the day that my savior was born I am just so grateful. I am grateful to just be living this life that God made possible for me. He has prepared a life for me, a life that will exceed anything that I can ever dream of, and for that I am just so so thankful.

It is crazy how watching a movie or reading a book can just renew your passion for God, and that is exactly what this movie does for me every time I watch it. I realize that sharing the word and the love of Jesus Christ is what I was put on this earth to do, and that without him I would be empty. If we live our lives without him, there will always be this void, this space that we can’t fill. It is only with the love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ that we can live a full life. I long so much for my brothers and my sister, that one day they will wake up and realize this. That they will realize this love is all they need.

I want to be on fire for God every single day that I wake up, and I want so much for this passion to never fade and for that fire to never burn out. It is on Christmas day that I realize even if I were to have nothing in this world, I will still have everything in the Lord. He is the ground beneath my feet and the rock on which I stand, my everything.
