~Mysteries~




The very quality of life, whether you love it or hate it, is based upon how grateful you are towards God. It is one's attitude that determines whether life unfolds into a place of curses, blessedness or wretchedness. Think for a moment, looking at the same rose bush, some people complain that the rose has thorns, while others rejoice that some thorns come with the roses. It all depends on your perspective. Thorns on a rose bush are there for a purpose and most times we come out stronger after we've gone through a struggle.


Men and women who turn their lives over to God will discover that He will make a lot more out of their lives than they can. He can deepen their joys, expand their visions, quicken their minds, strengthen their muscles, lift their spirits, multiply their blessings, increase their opportunities, comfort their souls, and pour out peace. And, these are only a few things that will take place once your life is turned over to Him.

I believe that each of us are here for a reason. And, when we allow the word of God to direct our lives those reasons are revealed. I believe The power of Jesus is working today. Indwelling every heart that gives Him access. There is not a problem on Earth that cannot be resolved. Our attitudes can determine success or failure in each of our lives.

Each morning I awaken my knees are bent, head bowed and I am acknowledging God Almighty. My prayer each day consist of asking God for wisdom, knowledge, revelation knowledge, understanding, Great Grace (Favor) in the site of God and man and that the Great power of God will consume my life. Remember, you are who God says you are, you have what God says you have, and you can do what God says you can.

As you move forward each day say this aloud:
A) I am Strong, Courageous, Humble, Full of faith and Powerful in the Lord.

 Remember, words are very powerful, and can many times make or break us. The word of God states that life and death are in the power of the tongue. Speak positive words into your life each day and in every situation and into the lives of your family. We are to speak things that are not as though they are. Its called faith!!!

~Greatness Within~

Your greatness allows you to fly high like the eagle... But fear and a lack of knowledge clips our wings and cause us to stay ground bound!

We have a fear of our own greatness,  a fear of others thinking that we are bragging on ourselves. But you must acknowledge who you are. And, walk the path God has preordained for you. We limit ourselves by our thought process.

I believe in all of us is a greatness that has yet to be discovered. I also believe that our first reaction is to doubt our greatness once it is discovered. So many of us, myself included, have played small for so long when it comes to our abilities and gifts.

We have shun our unique gifts and diminished our capacities just to what I call "fit in" -- and in the process have unconsciously disowned many aspects of our inborn, natural greatness.

I believe our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that scares us the most.

Is this true in your life? Do you fear some aspect of your own greatness?

What unique talents, capabilities and capacities do you have that you could acknowledge and appreciate more?

How can you demonstrate and cultivate those gifts more and express them with greater consistency in your everyday life?

Listen, your greatness is your birthright. God instilled this greatness in you from birth. ... Are you ready to claim it?

Before we gain knowledge of who we are our minds are an open book,  pages are blank and white. As we listen knowledge enters,  secrets are soon discovered and hidden things are found, words slowly fill the blank white pages of our minds as to how great we truly are. These imprinted words don't make noise as they are being written, but they make a powerful impact.

You have dreams you don't know about, but knowledge causes a knock on your door and now you see. Once you gain knowledge as to who you are, it will be hard to remain in the place you've lived for so long.

So, walk in your destiny. and if you don't know who you are yet seek God's face. Many times you can inquire of a good friend as to how they see and receive you. Start walking!!!


~See your greatness in you~
