> some words of wisdoms

This week, I decided to take a different direction and just offer some words of wisdom to everyone. I am going to take five of my favorite quotes and give my intake on what it means.

01. "Remember, Jesus Christ is inside of you watching and listening to the media
you listen and watch." Jeanne Mayo

This should a eye-opener to all the Christians out there. You may not know this but Jesus lives inside of you and is listening and looking at everything you do. You know the whole 'WWJD' and that we should act and try to be like Jesus. But just think for a moment... 'WWJT' (What Would Jesus Think). Just think the next time that you decide to watch or listen or do that is perceptionally wrong. Just say to yourself... "What would happen if Jesus was sitting next to you and you thought what Jesu would think?"

02. "Your destiny is defined by what you do... not what you did" Steven Furtick

I know I can speak volumes to this quote. Your past does not define your future, the things you are doing now does. I know I had a past that was very less than perfect and that my past didn't stop me from reaching to the potential and the place that God has me now and what He is going to put me in 5...10...15years from now.

03. "Politicians tell you what you want to hear; Leaders will tell you what you
need to hear." Daniel Norris

We know in America that politicians are really good about tell the people what they want to hear. And sometimes they never deliver the promises that they say that they would give. Sometimes that is like some of the leaders in the church. The pastors and the board tell the people what makes them feel warm and happy inside. But we need people to become leaders and tell them what they need to hear. As a person... if you were going to talk to me in a meeting or at the pulpit, I want you tell me what I need to hear and not candy-coat and baby me about it. Leadership of the church... "BE LEADERS AND NOT POLITICIANS" PERIOD!!!

04. "Show me your friends and I'll show you your future." Jeanne Mayo

Your friends is one of your biggest influences in your everyday life. You are the one that decides the kind of friends and your future will be the result of it. If you have friends who like to do bad things (drugs, drink, smoke, porn, etc.). Then you are going to live a life of torment and despare. But if you have positive influences from your friends then you are going to have a positive and fulfilled life.

05. "Don't seek the things of God more than you seek God." Cory Henderson

This is probably one of my favorite quotes of all time. We have so many people including Christians that are seeking more of the blessings of God in their lives than who and what God is. People, we should not be doing that. Cause then we would be considered to be spiritually greedy. Brothers and sisters, we should not be giving God the 'I want...' speech. Instead we should be telling God 'God, what are you like' and 'God, what makes You... YOU?' In your quiet time this morning... go and seek God and not what He can give you.
