You can certainly get what you want with them, […]
You won’t be able to consummate the marriage between you and your destiny until you first divorce your past. The past, both good AND bad, should simply be a point of reference because you can’t change it. The possibilities of your future are fervently trying to get to you, but you look like you’re already […]
God has assigned a work for all of us to do. It’s His purpose for our lives. Far too many people haven’t realized it yet, but it’s the very reason why you were born. The closer you get to realizing your purpose, the more opposition will arise. Understand this though: Opposition can never stop purpose. […]
Diplomacy has its place. As does political correctness. However, there comes a time when you have to be unashamedly bold about your position as a child of God in today’s culture.

Greek philosopher and author Plato said, ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’. What an amazingly true statement! You would be amazed at how creative you can be when you really need to be.

Jesus can turn your water into wine, but he can’t turn your whining into anything. Know when to stop complaining and DO something. Whining is not doing. We all have a part and you should never let the size of the issue stop you from doing your part. When Jesus performed the miracle at the […]
If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend at least two hours sharpening my ax. YOU are your ax! After a while you will wear out if you don’t take care of yourself. YES, everybody needs something and yes, YOU have to do it … but who will do it if […]
There was a season in my life that I often found myself praying, ‘God, you are all I have!’ The prayer was associated with feelings of severe anxiety. ‘Everything else is gone and all I’m left with is You!’ Eventually God answered my prayer and said, ‘I’m all you have but I’m also all you […]
If you are an evergreen, there is no need to envy the rose bush. Everything has its own season to shine. Be an expert at being you. Don’t abandon who you are just because someone else’s brand is in season right now. The season will come that you may be the only thing standing that […]
Seasons exist because the earth revolves around the sun.
