YOUR CIRCLE....

Too many times we move with the crowd, because we believe it will bring us some form of validation; like the more people we know and move with, the more relevant we become.

We carry on baggage of people who do not share in our vision or understand our mission . People who constantly hold us back and make the journey too tiresome.

You don't need everybody on your train, you don't need everyone to achieve your dreams. Nothing destroys a mission and vision faster, than so called "friends" who have no idea of where you are headed and provide no form of support in accomplishing purpose.

Validation comes from knowing yourself in Christ and relevance comes from the price he paid on the cross.

If you want to go far and remain on track while you are at it; keep your circle small and tight.

In the pursuit of purpose, strength is not rested in numbers, but in the genuine intentions of those who hold you up and run with you; it may be just one person.

Keep your circle small and tight....

A PRAYER FOR YOU....

May the unconditional and undiluted LOVE of GOD find expression through you at all times.
May it be so strong that it brings hatred to its knees.
May you find LAUGHTER in a sea of tears. Laughter so boisterous that it makes the sea of tears insignificant.
May you find CALM, one so soothing and reassuring even when you face the storm.

May your barns OVERFLOW with plenty, that lack becomes a stranger.
For those you INSPIRE; may they never find a reason to bow their heads in disappointment.
For the ones who INSPIRE you, may their tree of inspiration never wither.
In brokenness, may you find MENDING
In pain, may you find HEALING
May you have an abundance of HEALTH, that sickness becomes history.

When life becomes like winter, cold and biting; may you find in GODs ,embrace a warmth like blanket
CLARITY in confusion; FAITH in fear; LIGHT in Darkness; ESTEEM in insecurities and PEACE in chaos.
May you SHINE so BRIGHT, that those in the dark can use your LIGHT to find redirection.
May you be a hand that REACHES OUT to help/lift; not a leg that kicks down.

Above all, may you be ALL that GOD wants you to be; all that you DESIRE to be; all you ever DREAM to be and MORE!

AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE.....REGARDLESS

All you hoped for in 2014 may not have come through, but be grateful that you are still here.

You may not have gotten all your wants, but if you look closely and are sincere, you would see that God made sure all your NEEDS were met.

It is easy to think that everyone else on facebook, twitter, instagram and all; got the promotions they desired, got married, had babies, bought new Cars, went on luxury vacations and/or had a picture-perfect-creamy-chocolaty-looking life; and your life didn't have enough to celebrate in 2014.

Well, we all know that things are never really as they seem. Remember, no one ever has it ALL together, no matter how hard we wish. Remember that we all experience joy and pain, laughter and sadness, health and sickness, gains and losses, victories and defeats.....the list is endless. People only let you see, the part they want you to.

Forget what you have seen, forget what you have heard in 2014 and be thankful for where you are, what you have and above all where you are headed.

If you are still here by 2015 , then you really have no reason to be unhappy, disappointed, depressed or feel defeated. You would have made it into a year millions could only dream about, and plan for; but never made it to. That is more than a gazillion reasons to be grateful.

All you need is hope, faith and an attitude of gratitude for the "seemingly little things".

You are here because you deserve to be. You are here because GOD is not through with you yet!

Do me a little favor; keep HOPE ALIVE!

See you in 2015! Happy New Year!
