My Grandmother used to always say:
"When You’re Dead, you're Done.”

What she meant by that I don’t necessarily know. I do know that
no man knows the time, nor hour they will be done with Life. If you were to stand in front of God tomorrow could you tell him you are done? Would you be able to say that everything that was placed in you, you used? That every assignment you walked in, you did with your faith held high over fear. Could you stand there and say when the enemy had Fear and Anxiety loaded, weighing down on you it didn’t stop you? That you remember who created you and wasn’t going to let fear stop you from reaching and pouring out what God has placed in you. Did you let God guide you on how to use your Spiritual Gifts? Can you say God was able to use you as a vessel and you walked blindly through some chapters by faith and God alone?
In the storms did you have Peace, even when the waves were high? Were you so confident in God that you surrounded and leaned on him instead of your own understanding? Knowing that this too shall pass! Knowing that whatever was lost or whatever you are losing can’t make it you turn the page to the next chapter. Did you step up to the plate and let the Great Am I show you the way?

When You’re Dead you’re Done. Being “Done” means something had to start at some point. So let me ask you, did you start? Did you start the business, start researching, go get that Degree, start that Youtube Channel, or Pack? What are you waiting for? I know you can feel it. That Fire that’s stirring up inside of you. That desire feels like it’s across the street and the more you move your legs the more you keep walking down the same old road. That fire seems to be burning so low you aren’t even sure if your desire is even yours anymore.
In your day-to-day life, you feel like there’s more. You may be stressed and filled with dissatisfaction at work or in life. You are staying at your job or doing things because of money. Your Passion and Purpose are no longer driving the boat. You feel lost at sea. The water is deep, it’s cloudy and God feels far. You were so focused for so long, you forgot to look up. You forgot to notice and to check in and ask God. “Is this gift that came from God a few chapters ago, is it still the blessing thing that God has for you this season? (I have another post about "Not all Good things come from God”)
You have a desire for a New Thing. . At some point you have to break this cycle. You need to realize just because ya momma and dem did it doesn’t mean you have to. Matthew 10 verse 35-37 says
“For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:35-37 KJVWalking in purpose and in alignment with what God has placed in you may feel like turning your back on traditions or family at times. Your family may defiantly feel like you are. We must remember that each and every person has their own purpose. Our family nor friends can define what that is for us. They can help point it out for us sometimes. If you have a natural talent for something that you never notice until someone pointed it out. Now, what was your normal, you are using it in your own business.
Your Purpose may change every season or stay the same for 20+ years. One thing that is important Is being able to heal and break cycles that are stopping you and holding you in fear. You must know how to listen to your gut feeling and know which inner voice to listen to. Then, you must be able to Walk in purpose. We are all connected. I need you to discover your full potential and walk in your purpose. Your dreams and goals in life are much bigger than yours. I need you to reach your dreams!
