Life can be an exciting adventure or a daily grind. Where do you find yourself?  Don’t let age rob you of your dreams. Don’t let yesterday limit your tomorrow. Don’t let mediocrity kill your potential! Rediscover your youth!

Breathe the air of expectation! God has a lot to do in a little amount of time with us. Expect to see Him around the corner. Expect to hear Him and expect that He will speak through you when you open your mouth. We are all He has to work with, so expect Him to use you!

The church has been very good at creating events WITHIN the church. We have wonderful food and entertainment, air-conditioning and flowers, and can teach and preach amongst ourselves without a problem. But the table we set is not supposed to be for ourselves…it is supposed to be for others who have not yet experienced the joy, peace, and beauty of being in the family of God. SET THE TABLE FOR THE WORLD!

Everywhere we go Jesus goes, because He authorizes us as His followers to go in His name. God is basically saying to us, ”I’m on this journey with you. I’ll never leave you, I’ll never forsake you, and wherever you go I’m ready to go with you, because I am in you!”

God can only go where your feet take Him. He can only touch the people you touch. He sees through your eyes and speaks through your mouth. His words are all-powerful, but for that power to be released they must be spoken through lips of faith!

God gave each of you an important job regardless of your employment status. He gave the preacher AND the stay-at-home parent the same honor of using His name to go to the masses. He puts a value on life that no other religion or philosophy could have imagined. Are you seeing more than your own little world?

Jesus said “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19). He is saying that following His success will make you someone that others want to follow. Men will be caught by your posture, words, peace, and authority in the midst of challenges. That is true leadership!

Paul had an interesting view of himself. He thought of himself as a man who had died and awakened to a second chance at life. He considered himself a dead man, yet still breathing. Dead men do not get offended at other men. Dead men do not scream back when they are screamed at. Dead men can be poked, kicked, mocked, and spit upon, and they still do not respond. The devil and his followers have no weapons when Christians do not respond in fear to their evil threats and actions.

God gave each of us an important job, regardless of whether you are a janitor or a Fortune 500 executive.  He gave the stay-at-home mom and the preacher the same honor of using His name to go to the world!

You decide the source of life that is put in you. It is not your government, family, culture, color or age that decides what you say and believe and see in your life. Let that which comes from you be life to others!
