I’m Not Perfect

Lately I’ve felt like I need to be better at doing certain task in my life. Perhaps it’s because I feel like it’s something I NEED to do. I can’t be a great model as a Christian unless I take time out of my day EVERY day to read my Bible. I can’t become a better guitar player unless I work on my technique more than a couple hours a week. Jesus knew the Bible inside and out during His time on Earth, and John Mayer played guitar for 8 hours a day every day through high school (not comparing the two, just a reference). In order to be better I have to do more, and if I don’t accomplish this then I not only fail myself, but I also fail the others around me. So due to this recent acknowledgment I have set two rather specific goals for myself…

1. To read my Bible every day for at least an hour (starting with Romans) or more.
2. To practice my guitar technique and knowledge of music theory for at least 10 hours ever week. this does not include the music I have to learn for church on the weekends.

If I can keep up with this routine then I’m positive I will see some results in the way I feel about my life.

Where Have I Been?!?!?!?!?!

Well to tell the truth have have just been ridiculously busy. What with church, work and sleeping I just don’t have as much time to blog as i hope I could. So just to give you the past few months in a few paragraphs, HERE YA GO!

• Oak Leaf moved into the House of Rock in May. It’s incredible to see all the big things God has been doing in Cartersville over the past 3 years and the church moving into the HOR is just the next step for us to lead people from where they are to where God wants them to be.

• My amazing girlfriend Whitley and I have been together for a year and 2 months as of yesterday and I can’t wait to see what else is going to happen in our journey together. Trust me, it’s so super duper to have a relationship built around Christ, and we haven’t really been dating that long compared to many other people! We’ve been hanging out with Kyle and Tiffany a lot and I think we both like hanging around other couples who have been where we are now.

• I HAVE GOTTEN SO MUCH GEAR IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS. You can check out my current set-up HERE or just go to the link at the top of my page titled GEAR.

• Hopefully I’ll be buying a MacBook Pro in about 3 weeks thanks to all the extra money I’ve been bringing in from working with my dad. I really need my own computer and something that I can efficiently use for both school and music, so I figure Mac is the only way to go.

I have a few drafts saved for future post that I’ll be publishing this week so CHECK IT OUT!
