Everyday can be Brighter



Challenging week ahead? Take the following into consideration:

1. Try to See you challenges differently. Intentionally see the positive in every situation, change your perception of others who may be involved and keep an open mind.

2. Pray. Ask for wisdom. Ask for God's guidance in and perspective on your challenge. Intentionally respond the way He would respond.

3. Stay on course. Many times we don't see the results that we expect because we quit too early. Life is challenging, but you can make it.  Don't give up!  Don't give in!  See it through. You are building character and strength.

Grow

Have you ever seen a tree grow?  Did it strain and struggle to push out fruit or leaves?  Did you hear it say, “Uuuhhhgggg!  I have to try harder to make more branches today! Arrrggghhh, my leaves aren’t full enough. I have to struggle to get them to grow!”  No, you haven’t, because as long as it gets water and sunlight, as long as it is in the right environment, it will grow.

Babies naturally grow...if you take care of them.  If you feed a baby properly, giving them the nutrition and quantity that they need, they will grow.  I was checking on my daughter as she slept last night and I noticed something, she is now sleeping in her bed diagonally. I realized, she is almost too long for her bed!  Now, my wife and I need to invest in a larger bed that will facilitate her growth for the next few years.

Growth comes naturally when it is properly facilitated.

  1. What area are you growing in?  
  2. What do you need to change around you to facilitate your growth?
  3. What can you do to maximize your growth?
  4. What is blocking or hindering your growth?

Sometimes we hinder our own progress by putting off the steps we need to engage.  We may become distracted by life, our kids, our job, our health and/or our circumstances.  I know there is an area in your life that you want to grow in. You may have already started and become distracted.  I want to challenge you to choose ONE area in your life that you would like to grow in and take ONE step this week to fulfill that, to grow, to develop, to achieve success. Most positive things in life won’t happen overnight.  They take preparation, determination and focus.  

You can do it! You can grow.  You can progress. You can advance.  You can develop. You can be all that you want to be, plus more!
