    What the world needs now is vibes, good vibes.

      That's right. Trying to do my part, my friend!

      Good vibes, unfortunately, do not destroy objective evil.

      ​@@gabudaichamuda2545Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
      Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans
      . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.
      If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us into His image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. We cannot purify ourselves, but Christ lived that perfect sinless, pure life and then allotted it to our "account".
      That's where our righteousness comes from. Not from any good, works that you or I could do.
      It is not based on the amount of good works we do. God starts the changes, He carries it on, and He completes it in those who let Him.
      It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him, again, through His power and instruction).
      He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if YOU had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
      He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, forgiveness, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
      He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
      NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER
      If you have any questions let me know xx
      I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.]
      John 16:33 - Amplified Bible

    Lately I have been feeling pretty down and demotivated due to stuff in my personal stuff and the whole AI "art" bs and didn't draw anything for a month. Until a couple of days ago where I picked up the pencil again and rememberd why I started doing art in the first place. It's fun, relaxing, rewarding and it makes me happy. I didn't stop drawing stuff until my phone reminded me that I have to go to bed due to needing to go to work the next day. That experience and the quotes you shared in your video motivated me to draw again. Thank you for making this video.

    My favorite idea you shared - "Attention is your soul spending itself." What a great thought. Thanks for these inspirational videos. I hope to see more.

  • @BettimusFrostCafe

    That first quote really hit me hard, lately i feel like I've been all over the place and unable to get what I want done.
    I need to better focus my attention. Really meaningful video, thank you 🤎💜💙

    I am in a rut right now with where I want to go with my art (both personal and money making wise), this video has been very good in helping me calm down and sort myself out. Every quote you said connected with me. So thank you. :)

    Jake this video really helped me think about things! I’ve always had a problem with motivation. I love illustration very much but find it hard to do 10-12 hours of my paying job and get motivated to sketch and accomplish projects that float around in my head constantly every day! Please post more videos on tips for motivation and inspiration to help people that use art for self help and enjoyment. Even though it’s not their livelihood. Thanks again Jake!

    I wish I had art friends, the loneliness in learning art is killing me. Im looking and hanging out irl, but I havent really made friends and nobody I know is very serious about the learning. My friends dont even comment on my art when I post it and im not that bad. My boyfriend is basically my only involved friend but he cant make up for everything

    Amazing content. So refreshing to not only watch you draw while hearing such inspirational quotes and your added commentary, but the style of delivery so relaxed and such a nice departure from the rapid cut rapid speaking bashing over the head style that has become so ubiquitous on youtube. Well done.

    Thank you for the motivation.
    I have been working on a little project now for 2 years, or so. It's great and I feel conficent and it's going to be great!- I'm almost puking it out. XD
    But I also have this old comic book idea, the idea is more than 5 years old and I stoped working on it since I am just really wad with writing- but I think I found a writer that might be interested to work with me... maybe.
    It's true that you should start before you are ready, and it's ok to stop- because some projects needs just that little extra 5 years. XD

    Thank you for the inspirational video. I shared my attention with you and drawing. I recommend looking at some of Alan Moore's interviews, because he talks about how writing and art a form of magic because we're creating something that didn't exist before we created it.
