Sanity over Stardom

For those that don't know when I was a kid (like 5-9) I wanted to be a superstar!  I was in acting, drama, dance, arts,etc classes for those years.  *I would tell ya'll ALL about the "Lil Rascal" audition BUT I don't like the story PLUS if you contact my mom, she'll have NO PROBLEM telling you all about it -__-*

Moving on, For a while I would ask God WHY didn't He allow one of my auditions, plays, etc to win me some recognition and lead me to being a child/teenage superstar?????? I felt like with Stardom, I (nor my family) would struggle financially, I'd be set by now and would be able to "give back" to the world with my talent/money.

THENNNNN Today I had a revelation.  In lieu of all this Whitney Houston, Lindsey Lohan, & Chris Brown, stuff I realized .... I'd be CRAZY! 
Perhaps the reason the Lord didn't let me take that path is because He was protecting my sanity?  He didn't have drug addiction, piss poor money management, pornography addiciton, homosexuality, struggling with inner demons, vices & apetities in my PUBLIC/NATIONAL/WORLD testimony.  Sade wouldn't be able to handle interviews w/ Nancy Grace, Bill O'Riley, Perez, etc .... I don't do well with people asking me questions [that I don't want to answer] soooo I could see how I wouldn't know how to act with my life in the public eye.

So, I wrote blog for anyone who had/has dreams of becoming a star.  Sometimes that interview/audition didn't pan out because the Lord knows what the pressures of stardom will do to your life!  We all have our own lives to live and God does grant us the desires of our heart BUT you have to know yourself.  Let HIS desires/purpose/testimony for your life trump yours b/c the grass will forever look greener on the other side UNTIL you get over there and realize ..... it was food coloring ;)

FIGHT to find PEACE in His PURPOSE for YOU!
