About That Draft, Though

Image
I love this picture! Tom Brady shared this on Instagram. Never forget he was picked in the 6th round. People are talking about who was picked in the first round, who wasn't picked in the first round like that is going to make or break the player in their career. All the analyzing, all the statistics, all the assumptions can never override someone's heart. Tom Brady was selected with pick #199 overall. How many people that had overlooked him look back now and can't believe what they missed. The real question is has it changed how they see new prospects? As for us, people will overlook us, we're not what they're looking for, we don't fit their "requirements" but it doesn't matter when we get picked, what matters is that we are ready when our name is called up by God Himself. Other people may not see the potential in you but God will cause the right one in the right moment to see exactly what you carry. There will be one that says "I see it...

Obtain Your Position

Jesus promised us the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. He has placed everything we need to obtain and remain in our victory, it is all already in our hands. Allowing the process of forgiveness to purge through our hearts and release healing to every wounded area is the starting point to obtaining the very victory Christ died for us to have.

I understand both of those mindsets and struggled with them both personally. I know it's tough to forgive a deep wound, something that altered and shifted your heart completely and then have the perpetrator of that very wound not even care about the damage done.  BUT It's a necessity for us to go forth in com...

Unity Come Forth

John 13:35 "BY THIS everyone will know you are my disciples, IF you love one another." Pretty straight forward, we must love one another, we cannot pick and choose, we MUST be unified if we call ourselves Christians, followers of Christ and we do not have true love for one another then we are liars.(1 John 4:20) This is truth, it is truth that sets us free. Disunity has to go Discord has to go Stirring up strife has to go Allowing criticism of one another has to go Judging one another has to go Gossiping has to go Division among the body has to go Our love walk with one another is a revelation of our love walk with God. We can't love one and hate another based on any reasons. WE CAN'T--THERE IS NO SCRIPTURE THAT JUSTIFIES THIS. A few things Jesus found so important he mentioned them shortly before departing this earth. Mark 12:29-31 "Jesus answered, "the first and principle one of all commands is " Hear O' Israel, The Lord ...
