      2 Corinthians 5:7 "For we walk by faith, not by sight." Ever since I heard this verse back in 2018, it has helped me understand that we won't see the plan God has for us. Rather, we need to put our absolute trust in him. Day by day we need to live for him, and follow in his footsteps. Yes, I struggle to lead my life from sin, but I know these are situations he throws at me to become stronger. I put my faith in him, and yes, he delivers. I've done a lot of wrongs, but he's helped me do a lot of good. Even through times of depression, Faith alone has struck the sadness away. It does wonder I should say, how faith can turn a boy who weeps alone in his room at night, wanting to end it all, into a man who is content with life around him, who treasures loneliness. All these experiences, yet the only thing that has dug me out of the ground was my faith in the Lord and savior. I am a man with words but driven by observation. I see in the young of this generation all the grief and sadness in their eyes, and they need someone who's gone through things to relate with them. As I have a sister who is entering her early teens, facing the same problems as younger me. I want to help her out of this mentally draining stage and show her the kindness I was never shown. As for the other people, yet I still have my family by heart. I want to guide or help out as much as I can, whether becoming a youth leader of my church or volunteering for the church. Just to show them that being "gangster" and "hard" to look cool will only deteriorate your mental health and your belief. Later down the road, people regret being gangsters, and I would dedicate my life to helping others if possible. We already live in a world full of sin; we don't need broken children to be the next, nor do we need crying mothers grieving the loss of their precious children. I will follow his plan to the end, and put my faith in him. That won't stop me from helping whenever I can. Because in this world, I think we all need a little bit of guidance, from God, our Shepard himself, and us. I believe everyone should have an opportunity for life and happiness, because it is heartbreaking to see the ones we love pass. Everyone deserves a bit of kindness and if we spread it little by little, we can make a huge difference in somebody's life. Show them the love of Jesus Christ, who showed his love when he died on the cross for us.
