Hey! I have a message for you, as much as it is important that you learn from other people's experiences, please never ever define yourself by other people's experiences. The fact that someone ended up in a certain way after going through what you are currently going through doesn't mean you too will end up like that person, and the fact that someone you know and probably respect failed doesn't reduce your chances of success.
Mark 5:24-25 - Jesus went with the man. A huge crowd followed Jesus and pressed him on every side. In the crowd was a woman who had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years[GW]. I believe you are familiar with this story, but I want you to note from the first part of the verses above that when the woman with the issue of blood came to touch Jesus, she wasn't the only one "touching" Him. In fact, the Bible records that a huge crowd pressed on Jesus, yet she alone got healed by touching.
Also, I'd like to remind you that Moses must have been Joshua's mentor, and I can only guess that Joshua must have been looking up to Moses all his life. Yet, for some reason, Moses didn't enter the promise land, but Joshua did. So as much as you respect the blessing and talent God has placed in people's lives, please don't be too humble to dream bigger and aim higher.
In as much as we seem to have a culture that confuses a low expectation with humility, I don't think it's scriptural. Elisha asked for a double portion of the grace on Elijah, and guess what, he got it. Therefore, be like Elisha, be humble enough to serve and courageous enough to desire the next level. God Bless You!

The first phone I saw using a facial recognition system to unlock was one of HTC's really cool smart phones. Back them, while I was still rocking my symbian device, a classmate of mine had it. To unlock the HTC, this guy only needs to smile at the phone, it recognizes his smile and then unlocks. I remember we tried to put the phone to a test, someone else smiled at the phone, but this time it refused to unlock. It didn't matter if the second smile was finer than the original, or if the teeth were whiter, as long as it wasn't the owner's smile, it rejected it.
Today, like every other day, so many people will call on the name Jesus, so many people will "seek" God, so many people will want something from Him, but how many of them will get results?
In the facial recognition system mentioned above, there was nothing wrong with any of the smiles, but until the device is programmed to recognize a smile, it stands rejected. Likewise, accepting Jesus as the Lord of our lives is the ground upon which we call on His name, it is the way our voice gets programmed into the speed dial of heaven, and the path through which we have supernatural insurance.
John 1:12 - But to all who received him, he gave the right to become children of God. All they needed to do was to trust him to save them[TLB].
Therefore, God is waiting on you, He want to configure your voice into heaven's voice recognition system. Get on heaven's speed dial, accept Jesus today. God Bless You!
