Healthy Eating

We really are what we eat. Food companies have been adding fillers to our food for decades, and not everything they add is good for us. Some of them create cravings in the brain, almost creating an addiction.

Good, healthy food will lengthen your life. You will feel better and your exercise program will benefit, too! Organic foods might cost a little more, but they are inexpensive when you consider the value of your life…

Thanksgiving Week

On Thursday of this week, we celebrate Thanksgiving in the United States. It’s the one day of the year where people take time to reflect on what they are grateful for.

Gratitude should be actively practiced every day. If you woke up this morning and you are reading this, be grateful that God gave you another day to live. Life is routine and we take things for granted. Only when the unexpected occurs do we snap out of our comfort and live differently.

Look around. There are miracles everywhere. And then be grateful you noticed them…

Make A Difference

Everyone is born with a great purpose attached to their life. This was placed in us by the Creator, and God planned it before the earth was formed. If this doesn’t blow your mind, I don’t know what will.

We all feel the need to make a difference, to be part of something greater than ourselves. This, too, was given to us by God. But how do we do it?

To be a true difference maker, you gotta go counter-culture. Going along with the crowd will only take you as far as the crowd goes.

Take the road less traveled. Be different. Be a difference maker…

Too Late

C. S. Lewis once wrote, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream another dream.”

Are you one of the many people who believe their best days are behind them? I assure you they are not. You have a future, a date with your destiny. It might not look like a Hollywood movie, but it is your personal story.

Bring your childhood dreams to life. It’s not too late…

Fear and Worry

What do you worry about? Health, finances and family are three important things people worry over. But what is worry, and from where does it come?

Worry rears its ugly head when we are trying to control the uncontrollable. When you really consider it, we have no control over anything but our attitude. We have the ability to guide our thoughts, so let’s guide them away from fear and worry and toward God’s will. That will give you peace when you remember who is in control.

Focus on things unseen, not just what you see. God works behind the scenes…

Laziness

All of us can be lazy. Weekends are nice because our work responsibilities have left us for a couple of days. But being lazy all the time is not good.

We have a burning desire inside of us to accomplish our greater purpose. We must find that purpose and not look back. When we find what really turns us on, weekends won’t matter anymore because we will continue working right through them.

We are on the road to our destiny…

From Darkness

What do you fear? Are you afraid for your health, your finances, or are you simply afraid of being left out?

Fear binds you in darkness. Nothing can grow in the dark. Open your eyes to a new way of thinking. See the world around you through a different lens.

Go toward the light and stay in it. And allow the light inside you to shine brightly…

Your Place in History

You and I were born imbued with a greater purpose in history. God has a perfect plan in an imperfect world, and we are part of it.

God gave us unique gifts and talents to bring honor to Him on this side of eternity. In Heaven we will worship Him forever, but we aren’t there yet. What are we doing here to fulfill His plan?

We have a bigger calling on our lives. Much bigger than most of us are living. We weren’t born to just work, eat, watch television and sleep. Find your calling and go for it with everything you have in you. It won’t be easy. But God is on your side so you will succeed…

Initiative

Initiative is the desire to do something before anyone else does. If you have initiative you are taking the lead.

Look around. What needs to change, whether it’s something in society or someone in your life? There are multiple challenges that we need to engage with and move the bar forward.

Nothing changes until we take the initiative. Do something today…

The Supernatural

God’s power operates in the supernatural. We have access to His power to accomplish the impossible when we are operating within God’s will. He will make things happen through us that should not happen in the natural world. Only then will people believe.

Are you operating in the natural or the supernatural? It’s something to consider…
