Confirmation

Pastor Rickie Rush, of Inspiring Body of Christ Church, preached a GREAT sermon today. He spoke words I needed to hear again. About success and the kind of person you are.

Success takes time, patience (which I'm not great at) trust and lots of faith. To look unto the hills to see where my help comes from. Hard to do. Yet oh so very true. Success ain't easy--yet can be done. In His time.

And the kind of person you are--just look around at your friends. Really look. Do they run with the chickens or do they soar with the eagles? Granted you love them. And they love you. They've seen YOUR light and were drawn to you. However, do they drain you? Or do they want to soar as high as you do? Or would they rather pet their own backs and say 'tsk-tsk'? I prefer to soar like an eagle.

Eagles are also solitary. What's hard for me at times, is some of my friends won't come along for the ride. They prefer to wave--maybe, that is if they don't tell me what I can or can't do . I know I'll just send them a postcard.

Confirmation today. Indeed. To look to the place where my help does come from.

I am blessed.
