Reflections: Acknowledge Presence

In the presence of a multitude, it is easy to recognize the beautiful faces, the candid personalities, and the intellect of many. To sit or stand in the assembly and notice the good of people, the accolades of their achievements, and the passion that drives them is commendable.

But, there is something that is irreplaceable and necessary for the success of any endeavor, and that is the audience of one. When God recognizes you, and you have recognized God in the privacy of your quiet place, in the hallways of your soul, and in the public square of the multitude - is monumental.

Just like we all desire to be recognized at times by our audience, or that at the least have left an impactful print of our presence. So too, does God desire that his creation recognizes him. Acknowledging God will shift and align the trajectory of any cause.

Acknowledge His Presence, in your life!

Reflections: Stay Focused, Stay Purposed

In the wake of everything happening around the world, we can easily become unsettled and alarmed. As tensions are secretly rising it is important to remain focused at your task at hand. World news has it that dark times are imminent, but the Good News tells us that "for God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ."

Stay Focused, Stay Purposed

Reflections: Yesterday is Gone

Many of us are drawn by cycles and habits. We coexist with the common, the usual, and the familiar. Every day the sun rises, the dawn ushers in new mercies and opportunities. It is important that in 2020 we take a spiritual inventory of our behaviors and relationships that do not bear good fruit.

This year should be one with intentional purpose so that we may make most with the gift of our time, and investments. Remember, that whatever giant you have tolerated and compromised - is the very giant that will tare you down and stifle your progress.

Persevere in spreading the Good News of Christ!

Isaiah 43:18-19

“Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
