Comments on: I Planted Corn, But I Expected Wheat http://www.mikelbrown.com/i-planted-corn-but-i-expected-wheat/ Wed, 09 Jun 2010 17:11:56 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Jamell http://www.mikelbrown.com/i-planted-corn-but-i-expected-wheat/#comment-8575 Jamell Mon, 01 Feb 2010 23:43:56 +0000 http://www.mikelbrown.com/?p=282#comment-8575 You know...that was a bitter pill I had to learn to swallow, realizing and then accepting that my life was what it was because of me. I could no longer place the blame on the drugs, alcohol, military, dad, mom, grandma, skin color....no, no, it was me. I had to come to terms with the decisions I made freely, however ignorantly, and deal with the consequences. Some of which I'm still reaping this day. But, when I learned how to plant the right things and make this principle work for me I immediately began to plant a crop that would generate a greater harvest than those planted ignorantly in the past. I begin to believe that the seeds planted would produce the harvest I so desired and needed. And let me tell you, God has remained faithful in raining on my fields.

I have question many times to myself if this is where I am supposed to be in my life; thinking that I should be farther along than where I am now currently financially, mentally, etc. Because of choices, decisions, mistakes I made, yes, I am where I am supposed to be but that doesn't mean that I am going to stay here. I am going to keep planting what I need and grow to where God wants me to be. Thank you Dr. Brown for sharing the truth.
