"High on Hope"

Life throws us all various obstacles and things don't always go as we plan. Sometimes Bad things happen to Good People and Good things to Bad People. What's important is that we get up shake the Dust off & Move on.

I know some might say, it's easier said than done, this is true. However it's very much possible. In my life I have been through a period of extreme drug addiction whereby I was overcome by my habits and did not think that I would ever get out.

I experienced times where I would isolate myself from people for weeks & my only desire was to get high. I had lost all hope in Life and could not see how I was self destructing.

I am not sharing this to focus on my addiction, but in order to Highlight that there is a way out and a Place of Restoration that is found in Jesus Christ. I have personally experienced the bigger the Mess In your Life has been, the more Powerfull your Message will be when You give God the opportunity to work and heal your life.

I am so Greatfull that my journey of restoration has begun. I have a real passion to encourage others who might be in a low place right now, Sometimes it helps just to know that someone else has been there and has come out victorious because of the Faith & Hope they put in Jesus Christ.

Today I wanna say "Thank You" to God for his Unconditional Love that never Fails.
This Love has Caused me to Long For a different kind of "High" & this "High" does not self destruct but rebuilds the ruins of bad choices and bad habits.

In conclusion I would like to say a Special thanks to Rlabs, Cape Town as well as the Grow Academy for being a part of my journey in regards to empowering me with the Tools to skill myself towards my Goal of becoming a Web Developer.

I am very Greatfull.
God Bless
Shawn

Thankfull To Rlabs

Sometimes things happends in our lives good or bad ,we meet people along the way not to no whats in store for us ,We think we no ourselves to find out you never thought you will be any beter by discovering yourself .And we dont stop to and thank the Almighty for everything that we are and can be and not to moan about the small obsticles in our lives and look at them as challenges ,And someone once told me to stop asking GOD for the small things in life but ask for the big things we want .So i am gratefull for everything big and small that happend for me thus far and thank RLABS for all they made possible for me THANK YOU RLABS

2012 is gonna be a Year of Breakthru :)

It's been just over a year that I've returned home to South Africa from travelling & working in the United States since 2006. I faced some challenges trying to secure a job upon my return home in Mar. 2011.Whilst this could have been a reason to Get demotivated & allow myself to go on a self pity ride, this was not my attitude.

I took a look @ my life as well as what I have learnt whilst abroad and then decided to be an entrepreneur and I started my own little business. I have not made millions yet :) however I have survived honestly.

One. Of the things I realized during this time of change in my life was that I had neglected my schooling years and dropped out of school @ std. 9.

Although I have international experience, I did not even have a Matric qualification. I then enquired about returning to school to complete my Matric. I was really blessed and within a very short period I was enrolled to start my Matric.

I would really like to "Thank" Marlon Parker & Rene Parker from Rlabs who have Made an Investment into my future with regards to me completing my Matric. May God continue to bless You'll as you serve the People and Empower the Communities.
You and your Team are doing a Great work.

I am just about completing my Exams and cannot wait to pursue my next Goal, which is to Study "Web Development".

I would like to encourage someone out there, sometimes we don't understand why things are not going our way or why doors we think should be open are not.

It's helpfull in times like these to take a Look @ our lives and ask God to show us, what it is he wants us to do.

Most times these are times when God is preparing us for Something Better, and it might cost us to do something that we've put off or thought was not important.

So Today I am so Greatfull and inspired to empower myself thru education and believe had it not been for closed doors, I never would have dug deeper into myself and realized the need to do my Part.

2012 Is definitely Gonna be a year of Breakthru for me.
It's already Begun and I know this is Just the Begining.

Thanks for taking Time to Read my Blog.
Gods Blessings
