Who is on your team?

Who is on your team? 

A #team is everyone should have people on your team! #Entrepreneurs, #creators, life coaches all should have a support team. If they just wear your  jersey and don’t help they are not team players! They are cheerleaders or fans in the stand. Surround yourself with true supporters those who #motivate #encourage, inspire, and share ideas.  These people are your team. Love and cherish them. Most important, thank them for being on the team.

Moved by the Holy Spirit

Homelessness is an epidemic in America. We all have encountered someone asking for money, food, or some far fetched plea. Based on what most people see they condemn and do nothing. I have learned not to be moved by what I see but by how the Holy Spirit moves in me! Jesus could have healed, and fed, far more people but  He only performed miracles as he was moved (Isaiah 11:2–3). You will continue to stumble upon homeless people, family, coworkers, and friends partitioning for help. Remove self judgment. Base your response on how the Holy Spirit leads you to respond to their request. Our love for others should be without hypocrisy, be kind to others with brotherly love and steadfastly pray Thes 5:12-18. 

The power of compassion

There is someone you know who needs to hear from you. Call and encourage them today. Letting someone know you where thinking about them can turn a bad day into an awesome day. The power of compassion can change the world. 

Good fruit or bad fruit?

In the midst of an argument, people tend to say words to either verbally hurt someone or fulfill their personal gratification. The fruits of the mouth can fill your belly (Prov. 18:20), but the outcome can cause a lifetime stomach ache. Be mindful of the words you speak. 

Many relationships and even lives have been forsaken because of the bad fruits that flow from the mouth. What comes out of the mouth, often comes from what’s in the heart. If hurtful and vindictive words flow off the tongue with ease, they have been brewing in the heart (spirit) for some time. In all things strive to be Christ like. A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Chose your words wisely.

Decisions

For most decisions made in life, we already know the answer. The problem is we choose to accept the punishment even when it’s not a favorable outcome. As a child I loved birthday cake! One year my antsy cake fixation got the best of me. Despite many warnings of “don’t touch the cake” and the known wrath of mom’s belt, I decided to take a pinch of cake anyway. One sample turned into two deep finger craters deep into the vanilla cake. Whatever the situation, we are often faced with a Dilemma. The flesh desires what it is contrary to the spirit (Gal. 5:17). The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful (Heb. 12:11). Whatever the situation, Repent! Don’t let your desires be your downfall to salvation.
