Jordan Feliz released his latest album on Friday, October 4, called Everything Good. 

"What's kind of weird is, when I was 15 I was driving with my dad in my hometown," says Feliz on social media, explaining when he realized he should be in music ministry. "I had just led worship for this youth event. My dad was telling me that he really felt like God was telling me I should really pursue this. He was speaking that over me. When he was doing that I felt Holy Spirit for the first time ever. I felt like God rushed over me and said, 'This is what I have for you.'"

Proverbs 27:1

Do not boast about tomorrow,
    for you do not know what a day may bring.

Am I enjoying most of my activities or just enduring them?

Have I deliberately taken time on several occasions this year for personal restoration?

Do I give myself permission to relax, to have leisure?
