The Journey...........

Fantastic Morning!!!!!!!

This morning as I was saying my morning prayers I was thinking about believing in something. Then all of a sudden, Harriet Tubman pops in my head. Do you know that she personally freed over 70 slaves. Once she freed herself, she had the belief that she could free her family also. It’s not like she was a big strong woman. She was only about 5 feet tall. She believed that she could do it and that’s what makes the difference. I know that she was scared but did it over and over again anyway. Oh and don’t think she was perfect. She ran away once but came back. I’m sure she suffered for that one. That didn’t stop her from the very thing she desired… Freedom. Saturday evenings was the time that she began her journeys to freedom. With Harriet, once you made the decision there was no turning back. She had a plan and she knew that if they were going to make it to freedom they had to be focused. Harriet is no different from us. She was not superhuman. She didn’t have superior knowledge. She didn’t have GPS. She had Faith and a plan.

This is what I want you to understand. You can be in the worst conditions but there is always a way out. Have Faith. I have already told you that you don’t need a lot of Faith to get started. Having just a little faith can move mountains. A little faith can encourage you to take that first step towards freedom. It may be scary but if freedom is what you want then you have to move your feet. You see that other people have it around you so why do you think that you are not able to have the same? I’m not just talking about physical freedom either. You may need freedom from negative thoughts. You may be in the midst of a storm and your thoughts are not helping you. Start to believe in what you want. Once you get your mind right everything else will follow. When your mind is in the right place, your actions are different. You are not doing things half way. Believing gives you confidence and with that, you go full throttle until it is done.

Make up your mind. Do you want to be a victim or a VICTOR? It’s up to you. Harriet had help on the way to freedom and so will you but you have to make up your mind and take that first step.

Today is Saturday evening so what are you going to do?

And remember some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.

MAKE IT GREAT!
