Time

Time- This tiny four letter word means so much. There is so much importance on "Time" that the minute we're born we are immediatly put on an internal and external clock never being able to go back. All through life we hear... Do you have the time? What time does that show start? Its time to go! Its time for football! Is it that time of the month? Grab the hospital bags ITS TIME! Your time is Up, Time to move on, that was perfect timing. It was her time, all you have is time, Times going to pass anyway. TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME if you really think about it our life depends so much on time. Some people try to plan theyre lives saying "Im going to be married by this time" and "I want to have kids by that time." How many of us have tried this and it never works out the way we planned? If you ask me, as people we try to have so much control over our own lives and future and to a certain degree we do, we might even try to control others but are we really setting ourselves up for failer? Bottom line is... Gods timing is not our timing and our thoughts are not his thoughts. I believe we need to take every moment for what it is and enjoy this "time" while we have it. There is a God who sees the Big picture that we cannot, which is why a lot of things may not make sense to us now. He could be removing a job and your thinking this is the worst thing in the world. But in reality hes making room to promote you to something better. He could allow a painful situation to accour but our Lord brings Beauty out of ashes and you could just be the vessle he hand chose to reach the nations. Faith is so important, its laying your life down before Him and saying Lord You are a Big God and I Trust you no matter what the outcome is becuase ultimatly your will is better then mine. While we walk through life its important to enjoy the blessings we have, Big or small or even be a blessing to someone else. You  never know if its the last time your going to run into that lady at the grocery store who could use a smile. Or pass by a homeless person on the street knowing you could have really helped them by just saying something incouraging. In society we become so busy with life that we forget how much the little things matter. even if its just walking on the beach durring sunset admiring Gods Beautiful Creation. I would give anything to go back in time and re do some things or enjoy them a little bit more, knowing it was going to be my last. But we cant live like that. we cant change our past but we can learn from it, Putting our lives in Gods hands while he gives us the tools we need to walk into our future, coming out a better person. So enjoy that kiss goodnight and be kind to those even who dont deserve it. we are called to higher and with the TIME we have left on this earth Lets be World changers and know there is no better hands to be in then Our Lord. Blessings.

About Me

I'm Jessica Renee Prendiz I am 23 years old I am Co-founder of a Non Profit Foundation called "Hope for SMA." I have a background in the beauty Industry working for MAC cosmetics specializing in Weddings, Photoshoots, Special events ect. I also Just recently started working at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott in Dana Point. I am young but as a person I have a lot of depth and have been through so much in these last 23 years. In 2009 I lost My only and first Born little girl, Hannah-Rose to a Terminal Disease that affects Infants under the age of 2. At the age of 11 months my baby went to be with the Lord because of a disease called SMA or Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 1. To best describe it, it affects the Internal muscles causing them to weaken including the lungs. causing difficulty to breath, eat, swallow, crawl ect. Not effecting them Cognitively at all. Thus is why my family and I started "Hope for SMA." We exist to Find, Get and Give Hope to these Babies and Families who should not have to go through this. Its so very painful. After losing My baby and going though a tough battle fighting for her life in every way possible there are so many ups and downs that I go though. Some days are so difficult and others are steady by the grace of God. I know he is holding me together every moment and giving me the strength I need everyday until I am united with her again. Im starting this Blog not only to help me express myself but to maybe help others too. In life we go though so much no matter what our circumstances are. We may not ever know That question of "why?" while on this earth but we ALL have a mission, a mandate and purpose on our Lives. Lets finish this Race the best way we know how. STRONG. Blessings.
