SPRING INTO ACTION

There is a time for planning and a time to action. Some people are stuck in the planning stage of something they have been dreaming about for some time. Dreaming, planning, and planning and more planning seems to be the cycle, year after year. There comes a time when one has to move away from planning and spring into action. 

Fear and a lack of faith are reasons a person never takes the steps necessary to fulfill a dream. There is fear of failing at the dream and/or there is a fear of being successful because it may require additional responsibilities and obligations. There is a lack of faith that one can accomplish the dream or that God can bring the dream to pass. One must develop courage and operate in faith to go after their dreams. 

We cannot expect what we want to just fall before us. To obtain something requires some action on our part. Do not question whether or not you can do it. Believe you can and remember "I can do all things through which strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13). Now that you have prayed about it and planned it, are you ready to spring into action?

Be blessed.

YOU CAN MAKE IT

When you are going through a rough time or facing a tough situation, it is not unusual to think, "I can't make it." Do not receive that lie! The lie is you cannot get through the rough time. The lie is you cannot face the tough situation and come out victorious. It is the truth of God that matters and not Satan's lies.

The truth is you can make it. Sometimes you have to go through the bad, the uncomfortable, and the ugly stuff to get to the good stuff. Remember His promises. Pray to Him. Cry out to Him. Trust Him.

Trust in Him at all times, you people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah  Psalm 62:8

Be blessed.
