QUOTES

To carry a grudge is like being stung to death by one bee.



It’s not about time, it’s about choices. How are you spending your choices?



The best way to predict the future is to create it.



We are where we should be, doing what we should be doing, otherwise we would be somewhere else doing something else.



You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses.



The ball is in your court, now bounce it.



I always win. Because I come out of every situation still whole, still new, and still capable of moving forward. Every experience of my life moves me on to my next experience. All my experiences teach me wisdom, give me courage, and set me free to go on living.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE GIFT GOD GAVE YOU?

I heard a Pastor say before, if you don't use the gift God gave you, He will take it from you and give it to someone else. Now that wouldn't be a good thing would it?



Your gift is something specific that God put in you to please and praise Him with. Your gift, also when used for God can open so many doors for you but you would never know this because you are not using that gift. You are letting it go to waste.



Question: If you give a person a gift and they take that gift, don't open it and just place it the corner under some other things, how would you feel? When you don't use your gift, it is like you are saying to God, thanks for the gift but since I'm not going to use it, I'll just put it over here under some other things.



Bottom line. Pick up that gift, open it and use it. There are literally thousands of people waiting for you to use and bless them through your gift. Don't pass up this opportunity. This is the time to praise and glorify God through the gift He gave you.

STOP MAKING EXCUSES

Day in and day out, week in and week out, month in and month out you keep doing everything except what you need to be doing. You need to write that book, start that business, clean that office, make those phone calls and put things in order. When you first said it, it was ok, then after the 2nd, 3rd and 4th time it started to turn into excuses.

You know you have the power and the ability to get it done. Stop talking yourself out of doing it. Stop saying it's too hard, it will take too long or I don't have enough resources. When you have God on your side, you only need your own desire and determination to add to it and it will get done

BE CAREFUL WHO YOU CALL YOUR FRIENDS

They laugh with you in your face but talk about you behind your back. They say they are happy for you but their fake hug tells a different story. You would think they would be glad to see you do what you love to do. That is not always the case. They feel like since they are not fulfilling their dream that you shouldn't fulfill yours.



If you let them, they can destroy your dreams with their negative words and sarcastic remarks. Be careful who you call your friends. You've come too far to let anything and anyone take your dreams away from you.

STOP BEING POOR

The reason many people are poor is because they do what that word stands for which is: P.O.O.R. - Passing Over Opportunities Repeatedly.



How many opportunities have passed you by that you didn't take advantage of? It's never too late to start doing things differently.

Thanks for treating me bad, thanks for disrespecting me, thanks for cheating on me, thanks for calling me out my name, thanks for lying to me, thanks for talking over me, thanks for not listening to me, thanks for playing me.



Because you did these things to me, I am a much better person today because of those things. No one will ever do those things to me again. If they try, they are out the door immediately. Thanks past relationships. I am the strong person that I am today because of you.

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU PRAY FOR

You pray to God to send you a partner in your life and when He does, you don't treat them right. You have been so badly damaged by past relationships that it makes you resort back to your old ways of doing things.



You need to know that you are ready to handle what God is sending you. Be prepared for the blessings that is about to come your way because when it does, you need to take care of it. Be careful what you pray for. You might just get it.

CAN PEOPLE TELL THAT YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN

Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone. (Colossians 4:6.) - What is your conversation like when you talk to people who don't know God. Are you laughing with them when they tell dirty jokes? Do you cuss right along with them when they get mad at something or someone.



Do you give them advice on how to cheat on their spouse and not get caught. By your conversations with them, would they even know that you are a Christian? Our speech tells a lot about us along with our actions. If neither one of these are pleasing to God, then we need to re-evaluate some things in our life and get on the right track. You can be forgiven and start fresh right now. It's never too late to change.

IS YOUR OWN WILL POWER ENOUGH?

Will-power versus God-power. It is good to have will-power when it comes to the ability to do things or stay away from temptation, but sometimes will-power is not enough. It can fail you when you need it the most.



God-power on the other hand will NEVER fail you if you have faith and believe. God-power will take over when your own will-power just can't continue on. So let us pray each day that God give us His power when we need it the most.
