Stress, heaviness, despair..., pressure. Could these factors in our lives be, at times a result of looking at matters through our eyes and not God’s? I sit contemplating getting dressed. So much to do and absolutely no time to do it in. Stressed. Everyone’s depending on me to get it done, as I’ve professed often that no one is gonna do it for you. Heaviness. I’m still not dressed and the televisions watching me now. I’d rather just sit here. Despair. No, I’ve got to get up. Even if my mind is not there, I’m going. I’ve made the commitment. Pressure... What does it all sum? Close your eyes. A good cup of coffee doesn’t hurt too but meditate on who Christ is to you. Consider and recant to yourself all of the Word of God you know. It’s times like this where application of what you’ve accumulated in your walk, takes center stage vs. stress, heaviness, pressure, all of it. This is not all there is. Now open those eyes. Even if you can’t feel it now, know that on the other side of what is before you; is a greater place in your life. A place replacing stress, heaviness, despair..., pressure ... and yet, another seed has been planted

Stuff, stuff, and more stuff. Our daily grind coupled with our internal struggles have seemingly culminated into an amalgamation of superfluous living void of tangible results linked to purpose. Are you on track? Can you fruit from your labor. Yes, granted, you are a Child of The Most High God but would He be pleased with your progress if He was asked? Again, are you on track or could you be doing more? A child, loved by our congregation, recently passed and came as a shock to us all. I had to ask myself these questions. I understand the fact that as believers this is not our home. We are aliens to this earth and destined to live in Heaven. As pilgrims on this journey, we build The Kingdom of Heaven here on earth but it almost appears as though we've begun walking around as if we've got forever to do His will while aware here. I take my hat off to my Pastor who is an example of what I'm speaking of. No one I know runs harder for The Lord, leaving no stone unturned and every

Every new day is an opportunity to change for better or worse. As I invite The Holy Spirit to work through me in the writing of this post, I find that the thought of marriage comes to mind. You’re given an opportunity to interact with, build with, and live with each day you’re a part of and as it is with marriage; the relationship will be what you make of it.

Paul Walker. RIP to a seemingly good guy and by all appearances, social activism, and interviews; a real dude. Walking in purpose must be tied to a life of showing God off in your walk. Are you exhibiting the power of God in your life? Have you found your purpose? It's funny, most people'd associate those questions with fiduciary gain and tangible assets physically expressing their answer i.e., bank accounts, cars, houses & land... None of those things have a bit to do with purpose and your life's work in showing God off, unless that's His intention in His will for your life. In other words, God doesn't mind the material just as long as you don't mind the material more than you mind His will being done, building His Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven. Show God off while you still can because only what you do for Christ will last. So when Heaven reads it's final credits via The Lambs Book of Life, make sure your names part of Jesus' cast & crew.
