I am still on the journey...

In the book ‘Oh, The places you'll go! by Dr.Seuss’- it states the following ~ You have brains in your head; you have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you will be the guy who'll decide where you'll go ~ See, you choose what you desire to do in this life; via action or inaction. Your choices pretty much shape whatever happens to you, it is not random, happenstance, or out of the blue thing. Each of us choose, and we have the right to do the following, and will choose one of the following based on circumstance, environment, or situation – be silent, walk away, or speak up; you choose. And although, talent and intelligence are part of the puzzle, but it does not complete the picture for you, or guarantee success. Talent and intelligence, not just book smarts, plus right choices and right people allows you to live your life to the fullest potential but you cannot walk or choose in fear. You have to believe in self, even when no one else does or will. Life is cornucopia of affairs, themes, issues, or subject matter to address on any given day. Having good people around you make choosing, decision making so much easier, and it reduces the craziness you incur in this life. But you have to move….

God will take you out of your comfort zone to challenge you, to trust and believe in Him. He wants you to walk into your destiny. He also lets you know it does not lie in the known, what you have done before, or where you have gone before; he shows us a new thing. The familiar does not hold your full potential, and right now is not where you belong forever. Each day is about growth, change, moving forward and seeking a better way. Every struggle is a teachable moment, a lesson to learn from, and a fear to walk beyond on faith. We have to trust the father, believe in his promises, and take his word as the guarantees that they are; so that our answer can be yes…Winston Churchill puts it this way – Difficulties masters are opportunities won, and if you going through hell, keep walking- . Too many times we run away, stop afraid to address the issue, the difficulty, the struggle not understanding the gravity of feigned peace based on fear paralyzes, blinds, cripples, and destroys all that in its wake or connected to it…See we live by example, and we are all role models, whether we want to be or not, to someone, somewhere. So, when we screw-up, fail, or lose perspective on truth, then we should know the impact is not just us or what we see…Isaiah 43:19 ‘See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.’ NIV…So, I will end as I started with a quote from Dr. Seuss book ~ Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.~ As many things are…..wink
