Live!!!

God said, “Live!”

God wants us to live. God wants his creation to live. God wants his creation to prosper. God wants his creation to be well. God wants his creation to do good. God is for us!

God is for good and increase in every area of our lives. God is interested in us because he made us and gave us his desires.

God is for moving forward, he’s not for moving backwards.

God is not holding us to the past.

God is for good attitudes. He wants us to be happy and joyful all the time. He does not want us stuck in despair.

God does not want us being jealous or envious of others, because what he’s done for them he wants to do for us too.

God wants each of us to be motivators…to be motivators of other people to help them want to do good, to help them want to succeed and then to succeed.

God is for life. God is for us.

God says to us, ” LIVE!”

The Value of You

I have no worth, I have no value, there is nothing important or needed about me.

Too many people have said this about themselves, me included!

We have to keep things in perspective.

I didn’t bake you a birthday cake because it had no value, was nothing important or unneeded…It was baked with a plan in mind to help you have a happy birthday!

The all important toilet paper was not made because there was no value, nothing important or unneeded. We could all do without it….just use a leaf like our forefathers did!

Would I say the YMCA where many work out has no value or worth, it’s not important or needed? We could just run up and down the stairs 15 times a day or walk around the block on a below zero day for 2 miles.

These ideas are crazy because we have seen the value of what they provide and how they improve our lives!

You were not put on this earth as someone with no value, not needed or unimportant. Every single person is needed. Every single one needs to bring their best skills, talents and abilities to the front, to benefit not only themselves, but others.

We’ve got to give up all this unworthiness stuff and start functioning at a higher level.

There are all kinds of needs in the world…even right where you live, and you’ve got what it takes to help at least one of them.

Everything God placed on the earth has value and is needed…you are highest on His list!

Begin to truly value yourself and see what happens.

An Appeal to our Better Selves

I’ve heard it said you need to know your audience before you start talking…so you’ll know if anybody’s listening…

So today I decided my audience, the people I want to talk to are those who already want to do the good thing, they already have convictions about right and wrong, they just need someone to give them permission to step out of the box of societal-correctness and be free to share what’s really on their heart, what they really want to do, who they really want to be, what good they really want to do, how they really want to conduct their lives and their family.

I give you permission!

I am just a nobody, but I am also a somebody and I gave myself permission. Now I am giving you what has been given me…permission to be your best you!

Don’t hold yourself back. This world, your community, your family needs you!
