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…

Stuck

Do you ever get a song stuck in your head? No matter how hard you try to get rid of it, the song persists.

Your mind never shuts off. You are constantly thinking. Thoughts swirl around in your head. I encourage you to get positive thoughts stuck in your head. You have control over your thoughts. You really do!

Use your mind to advance your life toward your dreams. And dream big, worthwhile dreams…

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…

Dictation

No one likes a dictator. You know who I’m talking about. Someone who is a “know it all” who loves to tell you how you should live your life.

When we make changes in our lives, it’s because we have personal reasons for doing so. We are all on a constant quest to improve. But improving ourselves is deeply personal. And when we make advancements we own them.

Listen to others without judging them. It’s up to them to make changes in their lives, for their own reasons. Support them…

Daily Disciplines

Do you have things you do daily that improve your life? I call these daily disciplines. Discipline means training. You get better at whatever you are learning.

I read, exercise and write every day. These have helped me build strength, knowledge and wisdom over the years. I see the changes and I’m encouraged to keep going.

It’s never too late to learn something new…

Plans

We make plans but they sometimes go awry. What do we do then?

We adjust. We adapt. Just because our best-laid plans don’t work out the way we planned is not a reason to wallow in disappointment and self pity. We are better than that.

Do your best to plan your day, your weekend and your vacation. But if they go haywire you know how to handle it…
