Last week’s discussion centered on the truth that we are our own competition, and not anyone out there. The misconception that someone is our competition creates the impression that we might either be better than some or are striving to be like others. But we are not better than others; because we can’t compare ourselves …
Who is Your Competition? – Part 1
It is often said that the race of life is not a sprint but a marathon. Everyone is running at their own pace and time. The race of life does not constitute two people who are running the same race, at the same time, and at the same pace. Even twins who share the same …
Before I Formed You (Part 2)
A night before I wrote this message I woke up in the middle of the night wondering in my heart what exactly was going on. This is just one of my methods of having a conversation with God the Creator of all. Sometimes we get a little bit impatient when going through life’s process, especially …
“Before I Formed You”
The word ‘before’ gives the idea of something that precedes an event or occurrence. In this context, ‘before’ takes precedence over all the events of our lives, starting from the moment we are conceived to the rest of our eternal life. There is always conception before the child’s birth and there is always a seed …
Getting Connected
Two weeks ago, we discussed responsibility as the bridge between where we are and where we need to be in life.

The government shut down is the biggest showdown between the United States President and the members of the Democratic side of the house.

Responsibility.
The bridge between where you are and where you want to be in life is called responsibility. The journey of life is not abstract. It is not unattainable. Whatever we want in life, or the kind of changes we desire, and the impact we need to make are all possible. The truth is we need …
Gratitude and Happiness
Happiness tops off the human list of essentials. No matter how much we achieve or attain to in life, without happiness it is all wasted effort. Life without achievement is failure and achievement without the room for celebration is a defeat of purpose. After all, the essence of striving to succeed is purposefully to become whom …
The Key to Life – Part 2
Last week we discussed how truth is the key to life. Truth operates like a key. It opens the doors of practical reality. Every truth discovered is an open door, and whenever there are challenges or uncertainty, it is because the truth to unlock that door is not yet known. Keys are designed to operate …
The Key to Life.

We act on anything that needs a change of status; or else nothing will change. As simple as this principle is, the lack of this …
