life-missions

To call yourself an author takes publishing one book. To call yourself an inspirational author is the work of a lifetime that requires being constantly kicked in the stomach, only to get back up on your feet and show the world how you survived it each time.

The biggest lie women tell themselves about men: When I get what I want, I will be happy.

You know you have found your life mission when you say, __ dare you to try and take this away from me.

This much is true: When you are about to effect the lives of hundreds of people, Satan will do everything he can to prevent it from happening. Often pride and anger are his best assassins.

A fantasy is nothing more than a dream you were too scared to chase.

There are so many battles worth fighting for. The ones not worth fighting are the insecure battles that rage in another person__ mind.

God always brings someone into your life that has traveled the same path and knows the rocks you climbed to get to the end of the trail.

Every person that has lived with purpose has at one time or another answered these questions: Do you remember who you were before the world, and it's evil stole your hope? Do you remember who you wanted to be before a religion, culture or organization told you to be something you were not? Do you remember what your dream was before they told you that it was unachievable? Do you remember the moments God kept taking you back to the one thing you were best at (but you kept denying it)? Do you remember the moments He handed you the opportunity and you walked away, instead? Do you remember the moments He kept closing the doors on the one thing you wanted because it wouldn't help you? Do you remember it was all going to be okay if you simply believed, but you gave up? For every bad moment, we blamed others, kept score, got even and forgot to live. When you remember your "true self", then you can begin to walk forward once again down the road to discovery, childhood dreams and your life purpose. (Writer's Conference, 2012)

Satan will always provide a witness to where you have been, in order to challenge your fate.

Never mistake the uncomfortable feeling of insecurity and the fear of the unknown with the Holy Ghost__ promptings. Sometimes those feelings are simply Satan keeping you stuck where you are because he knows you will have a half-life there. He knows that you will spend half of your life disconnected, discontented and convincing your mind of what its heart will never accept. He knows when you have settled, gave up and didn__ try. Inaction is his greatest weapon, while regret is his second.

People are going to come into your life, and God is going to use them to help you. To them you__e insignificant and don__ matter. They are not going to understand you, or even see the point of why God had you hang in there with them for so long. Remember this: Sometimes meeting someone has nothing to do with what you can provide for him or her and everything to do with what God needs you to recognize in that person. If you didn__ understand the message, God will keep sending the same person or situation into your life.

The more I know about God, I am convinced He likes to read books and authors are His librarians. Every soul is a story waiting to be read.

I never wanted to be a God fearing person. I wanted to grow up and be a person that was fearless for God. There was a difference.

If you are reading this then you have wasted another day of your life day dreaming, rather than planning the life God intended you to live.

If you don't make a conscious effort to visualize, who you are and what you want to become in life, then you empower other people and circumstances to shape your journey by default. Your silence makes you reactive vs. proactive. God will bring people in your life that can take you on many different journeys that will bring about different outcomes to your life mission. However, if you are not proactive and define your dreams you will never know where __ou_ need to be and who needs to be with you to fulfill what God is asking you to do. Your life is your own. You must define your dreams, not live someone else__ vision of a good life. What is it that God is asking you to do with the talents and hobbies you enjoy? What were you blessed with a desire for? A good life is one spent in the service of helping others. Find a life partner that will help you reach God__ highest potential__ervice to humanity, service to his Kingdom, service to building others up. Also, begin any choice with the end in mind. This means to begin each day with a clear vision of your desired direction. It is not enough to live a passive life of religious devotion. God asked you to do more than worship. He has called you to serve, not to be a servant to other people__ dreams. You and only you know where your heart must travel. God brings you storms in life to wake you up. Don__ see it as his disappointment, but as his parental love for you. Life was not meant to stay the same. If someone truly loves you they will never take you away from God__ plan, they will only magnify it.

God has a way of picking a __obody_ and turning their world upside down, in order to create a __omebody_ that will remove the obstacles they encountered out of the pathway for others.

You might lose battles in your life time. However, every person that stands bravely on the side of justice, for people that have no voice, wins the true battle---Gods.

The most important gift you can give your children is the importance of standing up to injustice. Children will remember moments spent with you. However, it isn't togetherness that creates humane parents and righteous kids. It is the example of integrity that a parent sets and the on going lessons they teach about compassion toward others throughout their lives. A good father or mother teaches their children that cruelty is not something you cause or ignore, rather it is the moment you suit up for war.
