Whether in preaching the word of Christ, in hearing the Gospel, in singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, and in conference and conversation with each other; or in whatsoever action, civil or religious throughout the whole life and conversation, in the performance of things natural, moral, and evangelical, relating to God or man, or one another, in the world or church: 

Do all in the name of the Lord Jesus; both in the strength of Christ, without whom nothing can be well said or done; and according to the mind and will of Christ declared in the Gospel, which is his name; and calling upon his name for assistance in the ministration of his word, administration of his ordinances, and in the performance of every duty, directing all to, and having solely in view his honour and glory:

 Therefore embrace your uniqueness and individuality,embody the essence of who you are in Christ Jesus, you are Wonderful Made.  What You Do Matters.

The Appointment

Gal 3:26-29

For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. For

as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There

is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither

male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are

Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise.

God has placed within each of us a driving passion along with the skills necessary  to accomplish our particular purpose and vision.  But as we seek to do so, we often are face with the choice of whether to embrace the call of God, at the expense of separation from that which is familiar and taking us out of our comfort zone, at times can cause  one pause.  By remaining  station, as the alternative is to live without knowing your intended purpose.  Herein is faith, the ability to accept as reality what one cannot fully understand.  This experience offer us the opportunity to break free from our fears, phobias  and ambiguities, only to embrace a new insight, un measureable freedoms that lies awaiting just beyond the horizon.  in life, if we can endure the turbulence that affords us all,  and keep our eyes on the landing, what it takes to get there is only geography.

Prove Them Wrong

Life Happen, it present irregularities, things that are nonconventional, out of the norm and unpredictable.   Sounds much like life, not conforming to established rule, method, usage, standard, etc.;

Charles R. Swindoll once wrote and I quote:  

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.” Charles R. Swindoll  

 Regain control of your life, rearrange things as necessary so that mistakes, delays and other surprises won't throw you off your game.  Life happens, it is part of the growth and development phrase our parents said it would be.  Learning how to restructure when irregularities happens is the key.  Never lose focus on your purpose or  your why, give yourself the time and preparation needed to succeed gracefully. 

People only say you can’t or you won’t, because they fear that you will!”  

For with God nothing shall be impossible. Luke 1:37 

 A dream, is a dream.

 That may, or may not come true.

 It’s up to you, to decide whether or not its worth it;

 To try and make it a reality.

 Anything that can be dreamt, can surely come true.

 All it takes is dedication, effort, and the burning desire in your heart.

 Everything is possible, in one way or another.

 It all doesn’t have to be in the real world.

 In a game, in our complex minds.

 If someone says it’s impossible,

Prove them wrong; 

And make it happen.

Life is not Complicated, People are
