  • Never Do It Halfway

    “Whatever you do [whatever your task may be], work from the soul [that is, put in your very best effort], as [something done] for the Lord and not for men, knowing [with all certainty] that it is from the Lord [not from men] that you will receive the inheritance which is your [greatest] reward. It is the Lord Christ whom you [actually] serve.”
    ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭AMP‬‬

    This has been on my mind for quite a bit lately. I need to step up my efforts in all facets. Can’t afford to be lackluster especially if it’s not for me but for others.

  • Merry Christmas

    For out of His fullness [the superabundance of His grace and truth] we have all received grace upon grace [spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, favor upon favor, and gift heaped upon gift].

    John 1:16 AMP

  • Mental Preparation

    “So prepare your minds for action and exercise self-control. Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world.”

    ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1:13‬ ‭NLT‬‬

    Most of my life I feel like I’ve been on autopilot. I haven’t been utilizing the mind God has given me. Even so, I’ve gotten to be in some great institutions and amongst some great people. This is encouragement to get engaged and be aware.

    PS: This isn’t a photo post, but I figured this is the most appropriate place since this is my blog. Twitter allows only so many characters.

    Until next time.

  • Meditation Verse

    For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].

    – 2 Timothy 1:7
