Overloaded people fail.

Like an airplane, we can only carry a certain amount of weight. How else can we soar like the eagle? We all make mistakes in life; we all have regrets, but we must move beyond them. We must trim excess, get rid of things and habits that hinder us. For many, their bags are too heavy, but are unwilling to let them go.

Too often our actions are dictated not by our own sense of true purpose in life, but by a misguided need to please people. We want to make others happy and do almost anything to win their approval. We care too much about what others think. Although it’s good to be concerned about others it distracts us in not watching where we’re going. You might be going in the wrong direction.
Acts 5:29: “We ought to obey God rather than men“

Therefore learn to let go so you can fly. Release yourself from the past, trim off the excess load. Know your calling, goal and purpose in life.

Out with the Old, In With the New

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,  the new creation  has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
Learning to Fully Know Jesus

Philippians 3:8
What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing  Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ

Slow Down: Work in Progress

Philippians 2:13
for it is God who works in you  to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Life is a Stewardship

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Do you not know that your bodies are temples  of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;    you were bought at a price.  Therefore honor God with your bodies.
