Destiny's Child

My spiritual life is an important part of who I am; it shapes my worldview, my attitudes, and my actions. One of the things I like about my church (TLR) is that the people there are about celebrating and deepening that relationship with God.

Yesterday, Pastor Kevin nailed something that is so vital to us --- whether we know it or not, whether it is obvious or so subtle we can't really see it fully, we have a destiny.

Here are some tidbits:

  • speak into your own destiny -- in other words, talk (and think) positively about where you are going in your life. And of course, recognize you are indeed going somewhere!

  • encourage yourself -- it's great when others encourage you, but you also need to perform this important task for yourself.

  • do not let anything get in the way of your destiny. God has a purpose for you --- it is up to you to work hard, overcome the obstacles, and have the courage to achieve it!

I know I'm "Destiny's Child".... How about you?
