6-26-22 FAF BE Proud of You!

It's never too late to be who you want to be. If you're not living a life you're proud of, have the strength to start over. Don't look for the old norm, make the most of what you have. It's only too late if you believe it is. Things may seem impossible until they're done. Don't wait for others to serve you, take control of your own destiny. We are blessed to live in this country and can start over anytime. Believe in yourself and you're halfway there. Ignore the liars and listen to the truth. When life knocks you down, get up and keep going. Don't worry about troubles that may never happen. Keep yourself in the light of Christ. You have what it takes to succeed. F. Scott Fitzgerald said, For what it's worth, it's never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start over. I think that that is appropriate. It's apropos to our times. Because so many people, maybe you, don't know how to start over. Many people are looking back for an old norm that doesn't exist anymore. How do you take what you have and make it over again? It's not too late until you think it's too late, and you believe the lie, and you become a product of your own lie. As long as there is breath in your body, you can start over. Nelson Mandela said, It always seems impossible until it's done. How many things have you done already that somebody told you was impossible, that it absolutely, positively could not be done? I remember applying for a loan for my home, and I was told no. I couldn't figure out why. Because there was no reason that I shouldn't be able to buy it. But God saw what was going on and fixed the problem. You see, it's always seems impossible until it's done. Until you decide that you can see yourself at the end. You see, God calls those things that be not as though they were. God always sees your future. He knows the outcome. And he comes to your present and tell you, because he's resident within you, tell you what tomorrow is going to be. But it's up to us to get up and get moving, stay mobilized, stay in motion like the ocean, and cover territory. Because don't wait for somebody else to come and serve you. We live in the most blessed country in the world, and as one who's traveled to other countries, I can tell you we are the most blessed country in the world, in spite and despite of our differences and our issues. We are still the most blessed country in the world. And we have an opportunity to start over again anytime you choose to. I encourage you today, make today the day that you get to start over. I tell you, there are so many beautiful people in our city, in our country, in our world, and it is time for us to tap into our own beauty. Theodore Roosevelt, I love the Roosevelt quotes, Eleanor Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt says, Believe you can and you're halfway there. If you can believe that you can do it, you're already halfway there. Whoever told you you couldn't do it lied to you. Whoever told you you weren't qualified lied to you. Whoever told you you couldn't do it lied to you. Whoever said that you're going to fail just like everybody else lied to you. So stop listening to the liars and listen to the truth. Because Jesus said you would know truth and truth would make you free. One of my friends, I call him a friend, I really don't know him, but he says a lot of friendly things to me and not even knowing it I read his books. Les Brown says, When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. I tell you, that'll preach on any Sunday morning. Benjamin Franklin says, Do not anticipate trouble or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight. Do not anticipate trouble or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight. Keep your eyes on the S-O-N-L-I-G-H-T. Of course he was saying S-U-N, but I want to say S-O-N-L-I-G-H-T. Keep yourself on the light of Christ within you. Rise and shine, my friend, for the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. You can do this thing called life, so then don't let nobody stop you, because you have what it takes. And contact me.
