Have you ever read an article or watched a TV program about someone doing something amazing and thought, ?I want to do that one day.? I do it all the time. A few days ago I got online to check the news and saw an article entitled, ?30 things to do before you?re thirty.? Since then I have been thinking about all the things I?ve wanted to do in my life. My overarching desire is to use my life to please God by serving Him, but with that, I have smaller goals I want to accomplish in my life. Some are a bit shallow while others are very lofty and honorable. I thought it would be a fun to share my list with you. This is part 1 and they are in no particular order. Some are things I can accomplish and others are works of God.
Things To Do Before I?m 40.
- Be a part of a genuine revival
- Serve in a part of Africa ravaged by war or disease.
- Summit Mt. Ama Dablem (Mountain in the Himalayas)
- Write a book that needs to be written.
- Get a Master of Divinity degree
- Start a family
- Climb a 5.11 route (rock climbing)
- Do ministry in the Middle East
- Memorize a whole book of the Bible
- Become fluent in 2 languages (not including English)
- Run a marathon
- Compete in one more wrestling tournament
- Plant a church where a church is needed
- Ride a horse
- Build my own house
Make sure you check back in to see the rest of my list. If you have your own list or want to make a list, make sure you post it in my comments so that I and all my readers can see what you want to do in your lifetime.
