Time is Limited
Your time is limited so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Trying to fix someone else’s life, trying to give them advice that they neither asked for nor wanted, or trying to manipulate them into doing what you want is wrong. Basically we have one job to do. Make every minute count for Jesus. All the outside stuff is fluff.
Ignore Them
Ignore them. Ignore what?? Ignore those ugly hateful words that people speak TO you or ABOUT you. Words have no power unless you give it to them. If you find yourself rehearsing them in your mind or rehashing them to someone else…you’re hooked. The enemy has grabbed hold of you and has snared you in his trap. Ignore them and you win. There’s nothing like a mind that refuses to hold on to stuff that should never been in there in the first place.
Your Inner Voice
Don’t let the noise of others opinions drown out our own inner voice. In our heart of hearts, we know the direction in life we should go. God gave us a “knowing” in our spirit to receive the things He has for us. Listening to someone else’s opinion on how we should live our life is both a distraction and an utter waste of time
Shrinks or Expand
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to our faith. Big faith, big life…full of opportunities, blessings and favor. Little faith, little life…we won’t see or act on the opportunities, and the blessings and favor are never seen or received. This is the year to grow that faith! How do we grow in faith? Faith comes by hearing the Word of God.
Cave you Fear
The cave you fear to enter contains the treasure you seek. Satan’s greatest weapon for stopping you dead in your tracks is to bring fear…you know, the kind that takes your breath, that keeps you from making a decision, the kind that convinces you that you can’t move forward. The amazing things you desire are just ahead…don’t be afraid to step into whatever God places in front of you.
Future and Past
The future is made of the same stuff as the present. The only difference is how you look at it. If you see it for what it is…an opportunity to grow closer to Jesus…you won’t be afraid or complain about life. Otherwise you might just think God is punishing you, that you have it worse than anybody else or that your life will always be in a bad spot. Same stuff, different outlook. What will yours be?
