Many people strongly desire success. Some even pray for it. If this is you, listen very closely. One of the most unrealized truths about success is that success carries weight. You MUST be physically, mentally and emotionally strong enough to carry the weight of success or else that which you desired most will crush you. […]
God is up to something that will blow the minds of the people who underestimated you. Stay humble because it’s not your talent or ability that is making it happen this time. With this next blessing, God is simply showing off and He will prove to your enemies (and YOU) that He can do what […]
Be honest. We’ve all done it before. We pray and ask God to do something we really need Him to do. Whether it’s praying for the recovery of a loved one, praying for a financial miracle or even praying that we don’t get caught (if you REALLY want to be honest). Has there ever been […]
Intentions are like checks. They are worthless until you can cash them. Good intentions without application have the same result as no intentions at all. A little bit of something is better than a whole lot of nothing. Intentions to feed my hungry children are noble, but they remain hungry if that’s all I have. […]
If everybody that meets you basically says the SAME thing about you? Yeah, it’s probably you, boo. My mother said it best, no one is so important that EVERYBODY has to lie on you. It may not even be something that you’re doing intentionally. Sometimes the most accurate, unbiased mirrors are the eyes of others. […]
You will never have true GREATNESS or EFFECTIVENESS outside of your purpose. You may have success and be good in certain areas, but true GREATNESS will NEVER be yours outside of your purpose. A fork was created to be an eating utensil. That’s its purpose. Though it CAN be used as a comb, it makes […]
I was getting lunch at one of my favorite spots today. My mouth was already watering from the thought of what I was about to eat. I’d been doing a good job with making sensible choices regarding my diet, but NOT today! I planned to splurge and splurge HARD! While I waited, I heard the […]
We all have the proverbial ‘button’ that once pushed causes us to be and act in ways that we typically don’t. No one should have access to that button but you. No one has the power to carte blanche MAKE you act unseemingly unless you give it to them. If someone other than you has […]
Worrying about an issue keeps our hands tied to it. Trusting God puts the issue in His hands. Whose hands do you trust more? There are times that God simply does not do what we thought he should have. Don’t trust your thoughts… trust the One who created your mind. He’s been doing this a […]
The car I drive now has a feature called blind spot detection or BSD. It’s a system that enables me, or anyone driving my car, to detect when a vehicle has entered a blind spot to the rear or side of the car. At first I thought it was just nice to have. Now I […]
Far too many people today have beautiful outsides but dirty insides. As long as your outward image is fine, the majority of society tends to be ok with it, but it’s really not ok. If we spend nearly as much time enhancing our inward beauty as we do our outward, what an much better world […]
We say it often in a casual greeting, ‘Hi, how are you?’ However, when was the last time you greeted someone this way and REALLY cared about how they were? After all, you DID ask. The reality is, most of us don’t care. Let me rephrase it. We DO care, but we have so many […]
