I am here for Friends

About Me


†
But the fruit of the Spirit is:
love
joy
peace
patience
kindness
goodness
faithfulness
gentleness
self-control
Howdy. I'm Brian.
My purpose in this life is to live for the glory of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, according to his perfect will. My God means everything to me. I have been saved and I will spend my life trying to show that through the way I live, for He chose me and commands me to do so. I know that I will fall short every single time, but I also know that His love covers me. He is such a firm foundation and I give my life over with full confidence that He is in control. Every other thing in life is secondary to this. I love my Heavenly Father.
*If you ever see me acting in such a way that you know does not bring glory to God, please tell me. K thanks.*
My King, Do You Know Him?
So I'm 18 and a freshman in college.
I love my life.
I love being happy, laughing, and smiling, and when I am, there's nothing better.
I like to make jokes, and sometimes I go too far, so, sorry if I rag on you too hard.
I have a very supportive and loving family and extended family. I love them to death.
My friends are very important to me as well. Through the years, I've been fortunate enough to befriend some of the most awesome people on this planet. I love each and every friend I have and I'm very thankful that I know the people I do.
I have been blessed with a beautiful and amazing girlfriend. She's got such a great heart for the Lord and for people, and I still can't believe what a privilege it is to be dating her. She's one of the most genuine yet unique people I've ever known. To say that she is an inspiration to me would be one of the biggest understatements ever. She's filled with so much love, joy, and peace, among many other things, and if nothing else, I know that I can learn so much from her life and the heart God has given her.
I love music, whether I'm listening to it, composing it, playing it, or watching it being performed.
I play the drums and the guitar.
I used to be in a band called No Advisory (RIP), and now I am part of an act called Avalon Falls.
I go to Cornerstone Church and I love it there.
I don't talk a whole lot, but if you get me started, good luck getting me to stop.
I'm down to help you out in any way I can, just as long as it's not illegal or something. So don't be afraid to hit me up if you need to.
If there's anything else you'd like to know, feel free to ask.
Thanks for stoppin by my page. Have a swell day!
God bless!
also, i support:

I'd like to meet:


I would love to meet a wonderful musician named Elliott Smith. He is my favorite artist of all time but unfortunately his life was tragically concluded a few years ago. His music forever lives on in my head and in my heart.

But above all, I would love to meet God. I couldn't find any pictures of Him seeing as no one thats alive on Earth has any idea what he looks like so...yeah.

...God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen.

THE BIBLE

Heroes:

God, how can I even describe what You've done for me? You sent your son down here to take my place in death, and in return I spat in your face and disobeyed you time and time again. But You rescued me from a life of hate, and a death in hell. Because of Your grace, I can have eternal life with You after this life is up. You freely give me things I don't deserve and you come to me and comfort me in times of trouble. You're always watching me, and I feel so safe knowing that my life is in Your perfect hands. Lead me in your ways Father, for there truly is no one like You.God has sent so many people in my life to guide and inspire me, and trying to list them here would be an almost impossible task. I hope you all know who you are. I love every single one of you more than I can explain.And finally, anyone who goes against the grain to recognize all the positive things in life and seeks to make change on the negative things is a hero to me.
