Grow and Prosper

Happy Friday Eve Everyone! So the news is horrible and the weather is unstable. I have been buried in seminars and workshops this week. My mission? Growth. I want to glean from SMEs to advance my goals and dreams. What they taught was that this is a spiritual journey. You must fix who you are in God and let His spirit guide you. God wants us to know that we can abide in Him, do His will and do the work that God has called us to do. We talked about the fact that we're still here for a reason. God still has us on this earth for a reason. When you think about the Coronavirus and how many Americans have died, we're still here. Some of us are still living. Still breathing. Still able to move. Still able to practice our craft. Still able to help others as they practice their craft. Still able to be and be seen. What are we doing with those efforts? What are we doing with that energy? Are we living up to God's purpose for our life? Are we doing what He set for us to do? One of the things we must remember is to grow and prosper. Even if you move an inch, even if you crawl a little bit, even if you cry a little bit, you keep moving. You don't go backwards, you keep moving forward. You keep everything in place, you don't get stagnant. You don't get stuck. You don't become complacent. There is no middle ground here. Either you are going up, or you are going down. But you are moving. You are learning. You are growing, and you grow from this place. We talked about leveling up and getting to the next level and prospering. However we always want to keep our eyes on the prize. On the mark of the high calling. We want to be mindful that God still loves us. God still cares for us, God still provides for us. He will stop us in the midst of the hustle and bustle just to acknowledge Him. He will set our love for Him. Set the tone for our day to redirect the course. When we lose our way, the GPS signifies that it's recalculating. Because we've lost our way. God will tap us on the shoulder to let us know we're lost.  He wants our attention to redirect our energies to rewrite our course to make the vision plain again for us to see. We want to recognize where we've come from and how far we're going, and how much more work there is to do. Now we don't want it to be overwhelming, but we do want to be in compliance with God's will in our lives. So I really want to implore and impress upon you. What are you doing on your incline? What are you doing on your decline? What are you doing to level the playing field? Are you striving? Are you thriving? Do you have a guide to get to where you need to go? Or do you need someone to help show you the way? Jesus has a calling on our life. And He gave His life so that we might live more abundantly. And the missing link that we often have is our prayer life. Are we connected to the one? Are we still ripened fruit on the vine, or have we fallen off the tree of life? Do we need to reconnect to our spiritual roots, or are we breaking down composing as a seed to spread more fruit.  What are your thoughts? Are you practicing what you preach?
