I'm approaching my one year anniversary of doing stand up comedy. I started August 5th at Flappers Burbank at an open mic audition and one year later I've had paid gigs, gotten to run my own comedy show, performed all over L.A. and I'll be in the Ventura and Burbank Comedy Festival. As a Christian, I know my steps are guided by the Lord (Psalm 37:24) and that he is in control of my career, life, etc. But I also know God calls us to be active: Action is faith. Faith is believing in something that makes little sense by sight. It's what keeps people rooting for the Oakland Raiders. I'm not sure where my future is going. All I do know is that Christian faith has been my guiding force this past year. Faith has given me the grace to step out of the boat and walk on the water I never thought I could walk on. Faith has given me freedom to joke about things I used to be afraid to say. I'm not perfect. I've made errors. Mistakes. Even sinned in the process. But God's grace has allowed for me to get stronger in a area of my life I jumped into head first, without much of a plan. People always say follow your dreams. That's true. But if one follows God... ...They'll get someone better than their dreams. They'll get grace, Faith, and a sense of purpose. Here's to another great year of walking by Faith and not by sight. It might be frightening, but all the great stories and adventures are. People always say follow your dreams. That's true. But if one follows God...
...They'll get someone better than their dreams. They'll get grace, Faith, and a sense of purpose. Here's to another great year of walking by Faith and not by sight. It might be frightening, but all the great stories and adventures are.
