The Similarity Between Pain and Learning.

Ah, ok. So if you're any kind of person who has learned something within your life (probably everybody who will read this, duh!), you will know that when you learn something, pain comes with it.
Not especially physical pain, but it can be mental, emotional, spiritual, ect.
For me, learning new riffs, chords and songs on my guitar, HURT!
My whole hand aches after it and I have to take a break.
Or whenever I'm learning something as far as English or Mathematics, my head hurts afterwards!
Or beginning a new friendship with someone and having your first disagreement.
It hurts to learn, to be pushed out of our comfort zone.
This can also relate to God, I believe.
Each step towards Him, will be harder than the last.
Not saying that in a discouraging tone, but its true.
It goes to show, to ask ourselves how much do we really love Him?
There's a few scriptures at the bottom that sort-of symbolize this.
But also, it says that He will be with us in all of it, and that He will help us get through it all.
Learning is apart of growing.
If you aren't learning, you aren't growing.
If you aren't growing, you are... well, probably near death.
Just my thoughts.
What are your's?
Please do share.

Hebrews 12:7- God is educating you; that's why you must never drop out. He's treating you as dear children. This trouble you're in isn't punishment; its training.
2 Timothy 2:11-13- This is a trustworthy saying: If we die with Him, we will also live with Him. If we endure hardship, we will reign with Him. If we deny Him, He will deny us. If we are unfaithful, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny who He is.

The meaning of my blog

Ok my first blog entry. First off, I want to explain the name of my blog.
The words are from musical terms (latin, I think).
"Vivamente" means "Quickly and Lively."
"Acceso" means "Ignited. or On Fire."
So I saw this more of in a spiritual light. I want to be lively on fire for God in all I do and especially music!
Anyhoo, I love to play guitar (thought I'm not good..) I play piano (fairly ok) and write songs. I like to sing but don't have a strong voice or good foundation in my vocals.
I'm pentecostal, but more-of I like calling myself a true christian.
If anybody reading this has any tips, good music, or scriptures to share, please do! :)
So keep reading and I'll keep writing. ;) lol
