The HEAT is On

You are closer to your dreams that you realize.  Your faith has gotten you this far, and on this day God is favoring you with His grace and His mercy!  Tell someone else your story.  Let someone else know how God has blessed you because when you do this you are inspiring someone to put their faith in God.  You are bringing someone who is close to giving up back from  the brink of despair.  Continue to be a blessing to someone because your light is needed. Today.

Good day to you all!  Do not talk yourself out of your blessings.  Do not walk away from your miracle.  God moves when you least expect Him to, so never give up on your or your situation.  Stay strong and hold on for just a little while longer.  God see’s your struggle and He is already working out your exit plan.  I say again, stay strong!

For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. 1 John 5:4

In case you did not know by now, I am originally from the great state of Florida.  It should be no surprise to anyone that I am a Miami Heat fan, and watching my team win a championship was a beautiful thing to me.  In order to win a championship it takes a lot of work and a lot of work under pressure.  Things are not going to go your way every game. People will see your talents and skills and will still doubt whether or not you can make it to your goal. Funny thing about people is that they can see your talents, but they cannot measure your heart.  The heart of a champion does not rely on skill alone to make it beat.  The heart of a champion takes adversity and filters out the negativity to learn a lesson that it can use in the future.  The heart of a champion does not allow the size of the challenge to intimidate or overwhelm. Adversity and heartbreak are used as motivation. I tell you Dear Reader, you can never underestimate the heart of a champion.

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Dear Reader the heat is on!  You may be in the middle of a hot situation right now.  I want you to know on this day that if God is in your heart, you have the heart of a champion.  The same Jesus who fed 5,000 with just a few fish and a few loaves of bread is still feeding the masses.  The same Jesus that brought Lazarus back to life is still bringing those dreams that you thought were dead, back to life.  Dear Reader the heat is on, but Jesus is like cooling water from grandma’s well.  You may be going through something right now that seems too big for you.  That is because it is too big for you. However, whatever you are going through is not too big for God.  People are going to doubt you.  People are going to say that you will never get a championship ring.  There are even going to be people that are going to root against you.  They are going to watch you just to see if you lose. They are going to talk about you anyway, so why not give them something to talk about.  Dear Reader, they may see your talents, but they can’t measure the size of the miracle that God has for you.  They can see that you are good at what you do, but they don’t know that it is not you that makes you good.  They cannot see that your source is God almighty.  Don’t worry about the heat, a little sweat aint never hurt nobody. Dear Reader the same Jesus that took on death, hell, and the grave and won all three at home, is there to assist you.  On this day I want you to celebrate your victory!  Celebrate the victory that is on the way!  Be excited because you are a champion. You are no longer trapped because God has already made a way out for you.  The Heat is on, but if you dance in the fire, you will not dance alone.  Jesus is with you Dear Reader!

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
