It’s been so long since I last posted anything on here. So I decided to have a read through some old posts. Isn’t it funny how things change. Not just things, but our hearts and our minds! We grow so much in such a small space of time. It’s very impressive isn’t it! God has done a good job on us wouldn’t you agree?
I remember back when I started this blog. I had so many positive followers and people who appreciated it for what it was, but also had those negative people of the world; you know the kind, those who jump on anything positive and rip it apart for their own satisfaction…? ha. Those people said a lot of mean things, mainly how immature I was. Thankfully I wasn’t alone in my immaturity, and the fact is we all grow up, but until that happens, we’re stuck in a less mature state. The truth is, I look back and realise I was very immature when I wrote this blog. Not only did I write silly things, thinking they were profound, I did a lot of things I wish I hadn’t during that point of my life too. The positive thing is, in my immaturity, God still used me to speak to a few of you. I’m grateful to Him for that! It’s such an honour to speak into someone else’s life. We are His mouthpiece after all.
Well it’s been well over 3 years since my first post. A lot can change in that time. I went on to Bible College here in the UK. It’s Elim’s Regents Theological College in West Malvern, Worcestershire. I’m coming to the end of my time there now, which I honestly can’t even start to believe. How can 3 years go so incredibly fast? I feel like God’s had His finger on fast-forward the entire time. I also find it hard to believe that all the friends I’ve made, the life lessons I’ve learnt, and the self-awareness (the positive kind) I’ve found, can fit into such a small space of time. But it turns out it can. I’ve had an amazing time, and I’ve still got a couple of months left, so it’s not quite over yet.
I can’t wait for the next stages of my life to come around! I’m not wishing my life away, I’m just excited! I’m doing so much with my music these days, so I’m super excited to see where that’s taking me in the rest of 2015. If you haven’t checked out my music yet, go ahead and find me online! http://www.kieronriley.com has a lot of information and ways to follow me. Facebook is an obvious way too 🙂 http://www.facebook.com/kieronrileymusic I look forward to seeing you around!
Talking about change… Sometimes change comes around naturally, and other times it’s a conscious effort on your part. I want so many aspects of my life/character to change, but I’m honestly not as committed to it as I ought to be. I love the idea of change, but I tend to give up before I feel like I’ve even made it past the first hurdle. I hate that about myself. I wish I had more willpower. Or more to the point, was more led by the Spirit. I do consider myself a Spirit-led person, but even the best of us fail sometimes, so I’m pretty sure I’m allowed to haha.
Well, I intend to make this blogging thing more of a habit again once my degree is finished. So, I look forward to connecting with you all again soon.
God bless.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
