If it's God Plan, It won't Fail

God has given you an idea and a dream so Now you have to be obedient in fulfilling His wishes. A Lot of times, these dreams tend to be BIG ideas and we think we are too little to step up to the challenge! We compare ourselves to others saying, "Wow, that person is really good/successful!" We must stop comparing ourselves to others and start depending on God! Sometimes things will not go as planned but God does things in a particular order so you can give him the Glory and second, so you can have increased faith! So no matter what your dreams are, trust in The Lord and be obedient because If it's God's Plan, Then it will not Fail!

I DREAM

When pastors preach, When professors teach, When speakers speak, I dream! I dream! I dream about how He could change the world through the voice I speak. Through the windows I see, I breathe, I dream! Visions become overwhelming. And I black out into this perfect me that God wants me to be. But I don't believe I can.

I mean, I want to but they may laugh. They may joke. They may say I'm not so but I dream! I get nervous when it's my time. Birds in my gut but my rib cage is cut. Afraid of mindset fear that I could never be what this dream ask of me! I compare myself to the greats! I get weary of my successors. How can run with the dinosaurs when I was only born an ant.

I dream that I can be great! I dream that I can inspire! I dream that I can bring smiles and laughter but I worry and drown myself in fear! The fear that I created that turns me away from purpose! That turns me away from His voice because I've taught it to embrace fear instead of embracing faith!

I dream!

I dream that greatness is upon me not because of who I am nor my title but because of His Resume! White can be orange and grass can be bread and ants can be dinosaurs. All because of the thought of who He is!

I dream.

I dream I can be the best Speaker, dancer, nurse, photographer, social worker, dad, lawyer, instructor, teacher, spouse, leader, or worshiper! Why God do you give me these big ideas and missions? Why do you stress the impossibilities? I ask God why...

"I sat on my thrown knowing what had to be done. It was within me to do and apart of me to fulfill. I don't know the meaning of fear and failure isn't apart of my vocabulary. Don't Mistake Fear for Pain because pain was before me! Risk is what I took and faith is what I used! If you want to really know what you ask then stop your dreaming, for you have dreamt a great deal and start loving! After you do that, then turn your love into action! I'm only tell you what is true because, I Dream!"

What is Your Motive?

This is my Niece, Payton Aubrey Jackson weighted in at 7lbs. 11oz.

~No matter how tough you are or what part of town your from, this picture will soften your heart and make you smile! She is precious and beautiful. It's amazing that we all start as a child, amazingly created to where evoulution can't explain the how's, when's, why's, and if's. We has humans have the ability to create something beautiful and divine. Me and my wife go back and forth about having kids but change our ideas based of what others say! Some say don't have any because your life will end and you will be depressed and miserable the rest of your life. Some say, have them early so you can enjoy the later parts of your life. Some of my church friends state that we should enjoy our lives and have them late because Jesus may come before we try to have one.

Their is a small percentage of people who states they enjoy having kids and it's the best thing ever! Their are a few children that you see and wish they were your child! On the other hand, their are others who look and act crazy to where you don't want to think of creating one. Even though me and my wife have been married almost 3 years, we say that we wanted to wait at least 5 years so we can get education out of the way and jump started into our careers.

This is one of MY MOTIVES in fulfilling my dreams. I am what I am, and I do what I do because I want my kids to know that dreams come true! I want to Draw their desire from within and be the example of success! I don't want to tell my children someday that I wish I could or should have! I want to look them in the eyes and let them know that their "Old Man" is following his dreams and living them in the present. And when they look at me and say, "Why!" or "What pushed me!" I can look them back in the eyes and say, "You did!"

In order to be successful, you need motives in your life to push you! If you have no motives their will be nothing in your life but darkness on horrible days. You need to find out your motives which are your whys! Why do you want to be successful? Are you doing it to be selfish or are you trying to help someone in need! We all were created to serve and we need to tap into our motives so we can help others in need. I say this because a lot of things we REALLY want to do invovles helping someone. We ALL want to help people no matter how good or bad you may be. It's funny, because we get that from the creator! Find out what your Motive is so you can reach your full potential! This way in the later part of life, you won't have to ponder on the "I should have done" or "I could have done!"~

Color Wheels of Life

~I am in love with the colors of God's beauty! My inner soul enjoys the silence and calmness of nature that relieves the mind from distractions. I can hear nothing but silent wind blowing and still waters of joy creating peace within its reach. I imagine walking along the sidewalk amazed in the color wheels of life as if I stepped in God's photo album and took a look around. Looking back at Him smiling while He signals for me to explore His new art exhibit.

This lovely pictures stimulates our abilities in a spiritual way, notifying our brains that their is more to life than what society feeds us. You may not admit it, but we all have a desire for something greater. We are designed for heaven to where we can be free from life's troubles and our souls can feel the infinte peace and joy of our God! Don't let bills, money, technology, alcohol, TV, student loans, careers, suicide, bullying, neglect, riches nor stress distract you from the simple things of life. Because those simple things give you hope and peace so your color wheels of life won't fade to black and white.~

Listening to God helps your Marriage Grow

If you don't make time for God, you are not going to hear from God. You have to slow down and be quiet so you can hear him. When you are in a hurry you can't hear God. When you learn how to focus on God's words, you will learn how to listen to your spouse! Self has to be put aside so you can use your two ears to listen and your one mouth to seal shut! Learn how to listen to his voice and practice listening to your spouse! And watch your relationships grow!

Free Your Mind

~Thinking outside the box is something I've learned throughout life. In order to be successful, you must cut open your box and let your ideas breathe. Turn your ideas into pictures and words and express the mirrors of success like water reflects it surroundings. Let your mind adapt to different shapes of life so you can focus on your desires. You can do anything! You can Accomplish Everything! Just let your ideas flow, and Free Your Mind~
