Be Someone

Be Someone

Be someone who listens, and you will be heard.
Be someone who cares, and you will be loved.
Be someone who gives, and you will be blessed.
Be someone who comforts, and you will know peace.

Be someone who genuinely seeks to understand, and you will be wise.
Be someone kind, someone considerate, and you will be admired.
Be someone who values truth, and you will be respected.
Be someone who takes action, and you will move life forward.

Be someone who lifts others higher, and your life will be rich.
Be someone filled with gratitude, and there will be no end to the things for which you'll be thankful.

Be someone who lives with joy, with purpose, as your own light brightly shines.
Be, in every moment, the special someone you are truly meant to be.

Hey did YOU write this?

Unfortunately I did not; I wish I would have because it's inspiring.

About This Blog

This blog was inspired after I read Timothy 4:12. The verse reads, “Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.” After reading this, I realized that as a Catholic, I was not setting a good example. Yes, I went to Church regularly. Yes, I have always believed in God, that Christ died for my sins and because of His sacrifice and my acceptance of it, I would go to Heaven. However, my day to day life was anything but God-centered. I had become too much attached to this world, forgetting that I should have been focused on Christ. Instead, I had become focused on what the secular world told me what was right, what was “in”. I listened to what music everybody else thought was cool, which was mostly Top 40 and was self-centered, not realizing how blessed I really was. I now want to live for Jesus every day. I realize that I, along with you, are called by God to live as an example of Christ in ALL aspects of our lives — not just in Church or around Christians. We are to be an example of Christ everywhere. What we read, watch, listen to, think, the way we love others are all supposed to lead back to one person: Christ. I hope and pray that this blog gives you, a young Christian, the resources and information you need live a Christ-like example, “in speech and conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.”
