Life actually happens on purpose!

Don't get caught up in the negativity that surrounds you. Use this time for your joy! Many times without realizing it, our enemies are the ones that motivate us because they get our goat and cause us to challenge them. So if you are facing some kind of enemy in your life believe that you must be getting closer to your glory because challenges are being placed in front of you. Jumping Over HurdlesSmile back at them and say to yourself that you are an overcomer because your God is on your side. When you maintain the right attitude, your Creator will use your difficult times for your good. Nothing happens for a worthless purpose, but rather is divinely planned. Life actually happens on purpose! That is why you need to stay positive and know that when you maintain the right attitude, things will, with time, begin to shine brightly.

I know that at times, there have been some people who have doubted my talents and capabilities and have ignored me and yes it hurts. Those, whom I thought were my friends, disregarded me and pushed me out of their circles. Our hurtful feelings of being slighted often surface and open the door for our thoughts to run haywire. Maybe everything looks like a set back for your life but I am here to tell you, that you should look at it, instead as simply a detour that will lead to new opportunities. Quite possibly what you thought was a sign of failure just might actually be a set up that will lead you to the next level or stage of your life. I personally believe that if you stay in faith, God will use those moments as a stepping stone that will enable you to rise up and reach your highest potential.

When others ignore you and put you down, that is the time you must say to yourself: "They have no concept of who I am and what I will achieve; some day they will have wished they had me in their life!" Sometimes God uses the negative to keep us stirred up, to get us motivated and more pro-active.

So my message to you today is: "Don't REACH Your Highest Potentialfeel dejected but rather believe that your time for promotion, recognition and glory is in front of you." You are about to enjoy the fullness of your destiny and reach your highest potential. Often the opposition that is placed on our path is there for a purpose and we must use it for our good.

When the enemy puts you under pressure, say this is the time that I am going to increase my efforts and push myself harder. I have often discovered that being under pressure only makes me stronger and more determined to make it happen. I have always been the type of personality that when someone said I couldn't do something, their declaration only made me more determined to work harder-smarter and more conscientiously. So please use your obstacles for your good because life actually happens on purpose.
