Von Miller: A Good Man For God

Once a wise man said”stay focused your start does not determine how you’re going to finish” by Herm Edwards. Dreaming on becoming an NFL player for The Dallas Cowboys.I believe dreams do come true if I work hard to reach my goal.

A Hero is someone who is greatly admired. A Hero could be someone as real as you and me or it could be a fictional character like Batman or Captain America. They could be a powerful being or an inspirational teacher that leads you to the path for the rest of your life. Everyone has their own hero for their own reason.

To embrace adversity as a friend who will teach me far more about myself than any joyful run of success and good fortune. To remember that failures, even when they occur, are only guides to success, since every discovery of what is false will lead me to seek after what is true, and every experience teaches me some form of error that shall afterward be carefully avoided. To rejoice over what I have, little though it may be, always recalling the oft-told tale of the man who was sobbing because he had no shoes until, one day, he met a man who had no feet. For the rest of my life, this very special day, God help me. For the rest of my life, this very special day, God help me. To accept myself as I am without ever allowing my conscience or sense of duty to force me to live a life's pattern designed solely for the benefit of others. To realize that I must never accept the praise and love of people as a measure of my personal worth, since my true value depends far more on how I feel about myself and how involved I am in the world outside myself. To resist the temptation to surpass the achievements of others, since this pathetic and yet common desire is no more than a sign of insecurity and weakness and I will never be me if I allow others to set my standards. To ignite all my actions, both at work and play, with constant sparks of enthusiasm so that my excitement and zeal at whatever I am doing will subdue all difficulties

My mission: To work my hardest in school, at work, as a wife and as a mother to do the best I can, to make each day count, and to treat others with respect.

This is my favorite because you can apply this rule to every day of your life and with just about everything you do. There is a purpose for everything and there is a reason you walk the way you walk. A reason to go to work every day, a reason a person has friends and family that they have. I am driving with purpose in the vet program. I applied because I wanted to be a licensed veterinary technician.

Nothing means more to me than spending quality time on Sundays with my family, sitting on the couch and watching football. Even as a young kid, before I knew the names of the teams my Dad would say, “We’re rooting for the blue team!” I had no idea what was going on but I was so interested by the game that I would cheer and yell whenever my Dad would. This natural attention to this great game gave me the desire to prepare myself to eventually join a team. I learned how to motivate myself to workout, study plays and annoy my Dad enough to throw a ball with me in the backyard. I felt it was my purpose in life to become a professional and play football as

about having a real relationship with God and his Son. Of course, I knew of them, but to truly

I believe that we can achieve what we have envisioned in our lives as we consistently not only believe it but confidently work hard toward that belief. Such is my principle and conviction

In the book Knowing God, Packer breaks up the entire book into 3 sections: Know The lord, Behold your God, and if God is for us and we for him. It is important to see that these factors build each other up as the book moves along. What I will be looking at is the essence of christianity and essentially what triggers it to be the essence of our relationship with christ..

Everyone has a God given purpose to their life. It’s a matter of knowing what that purpose is and using it for good. I believe my purpose in life is to be an achiever and be very consistent through God. The reason I say this is because, I have great goals beyond college, I never give up, and I have great morals. It is great to have great goals beyond college, because that is where God starts to really test you and show you your purpose.

I believe in aspiring to be the greatest person you can be and overcoming obstacles in life- no matter how big or how small.

I believe every individual on Earth exists to make a difference, whether it is to provide care, entertain, educate, or enforce the law and dispense justice. It is our duty to go out into the world and explore what we are capable of. To me, the purpose of life is to follow the journey of our existence and discover how much of an impact we can make in the lives of others. I have devoted my life to being of service to those that surround me. I thrive on being a source of inspiration and motivation to others, which is why becoming a Physician Assistant (PA) is my ultimate goal; it is my dream job.

Well for me, football is my top favorite sport. When I was in school, I had a problem with authority, and teachers would often make me mad. I tried hard to control my aggression, frustration, and anger. I jumped into drugs and cigarettes to fights and gangs. Because nothing I tried worked, I went to football tryouts. I felt happy and excited for the first time in a long time; I eventually got on the field and ran and ran.

My Mission Statement is to constantly grow in ways that will take me to higher heights, all while keeping God first, family second, and career third. My goal is to forgive without holding a grudge. Vocalize my feelings when I am hurting or sad, in a way that will be productive in resolving the issue. I also would like to not be so guarded. I will allow others to love me in their own way, and not get upset when it is not the same way I love them. I would like to grow in divine wisdom, love, peace, patience and experience daily joy. As I grow in wisdom, I would also like to impart knowledge in younger generations to help them prevent some of the same mistakes that I have made in the past. I will always try to treat others the way I would like to be
