PRESS RESET

When you look at your life right now, are you where you thought you would be at this point in your life? Do you feel as though you missed a few great opportunities? If you believe you missed out on great opportunities or your chance to fulfill long held goals or dreams, you should know it is not too late. At this moment you can decide to remain as you are or press the reset button on your life and begin again. In reality, we cannot rewind time but we can make the most of the time remaining.

I believe all of us get stuck in a rut or get off track from time to time. With the busyness of today, it can be easy to lose focus. If you are ready to press reset, make up your mind that now is the time. Create goals, or write down your vision, and take the necessary steps required. 

You might be on track with your goals, dreams, etc., but find you need to press the reset button in other areas of your life. Then press reset.

Be blessed.

JUST DO IT!

"After I take this course, I will."

"I don't have the money."

"I'm waiting on the Lord."

"I can't."

These are some of the excuses many of us are guilty of using to put off taking the first step required to make our dreams come true. 

What about your faith? Are you trusting in your own power? Your own strength? You can take course after course to prepare, but in reality, you probably already possess the skills needed to take the first step. Maybe you do not have adequate financing, but the Lord can place the right people in your path at the right time to favor you along the way. You say you are waiting on the Lord but maybe He is waiting on you to take the first step. If you say you can't, you won't.

Stop putting off what you need to do. Just do it. Take the first step and do it in faith.

For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7

Be blessed.

WHEN YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, GOD HAS ANSWERS

As we know, life is a journey. On this journey we encounter many situations that make us ask questions regarding relationships, times of hardship and trials, as well as situations that cause us pain. We have questions about life in general. Some people go to everyone and every where seeking answers only God can provide. It is true seeking wise counsel from others can be a benefit to us, but before we do so, we should take the opportunity to seek the God. 

Children ask adults innocent questions about anything. They learn by asking questions. I believe the same can be said for us when we ask questions. Asking questions helps us learn. The process of learning is ongoing. It does not stop the moment we graduate from high school or reach an age of maturity. It is a wonderful thing to know we have a reliable Source we can go to for answers. Correct answers.

God is not bothered by our questions. In fact, He wants us to seek Him for answers. We are not always prepared for the answers God gives. At times, He does not answer in the way we desire, but still, He answers. 

If you have gone from him to her and from here to there and still cannot find answers to your questions, try asking God. He has the answers.

"Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’" Jeremiah 33:3

Be blessed.

CHANGES COME WITH NEW SEASONS

Today is the first day of a new month. We get a fresh start. It feels good to leave all behind that is not meant to be with us now or in our future. This includes regrets, negative attitudes, and people, places, and/or things that held us down or keeps us from getting to where we need to be.

A new season is coming quickly. This is happening in the natural for all of us as well as spiritually for some of us. Embrace the change this new season brings. Walk through every door God opens for you. Do not look back on last month and dwell on what should have been or what could have been. God is doing a new thing. Be excited about it.

"Behold, I will do a new thing,
Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
I will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert." Isaiah 43:19


Be blessed.
