Let's go full-steam ahead people!!!!!!

This past Sunday my pastor got to speaking about moving forward with a spirit of expectation. Check John 5:1-10 if you're looking for the verse. The sermon covered a couple of different topics, but a couple stood out to me.

The main lesson that I learned was to look forward to your future with excitement and the expectation of great things to occur. There are all kinds of road blocks that have stood (and perhaps still stand) in our way. However, we cannot let these things become a deterrent. There are great blessings in store for each and everyone of us in spite of whatever difficulties we face. Let's live our lives looking past our roadblocks to our bright and near future. Let's focus on the opportunities that we have to overcome our hurdles and the reward that is awaiting us, rather than the hurdles themselves. When you focus to closely on your present or past difficulties then you lose sight of God, who holds your solution. Instead focus on your faith, your blessings, and the Lord, and your outlook will instantly brighten.

Fav quote of the sermon: "Sometimes our biggest enemy is our inner-me."

So put a big smile on your face everyone! Great things await us all. No more holding back, making excuses, or waiting in someone else to take us to the next level. Release your fears and struggles of the past....whatever is meant for you, IT IS FOR YOU!!! Nevermind what is standing in your way. If it is meant to be, then there is nothing that can stop it :-D
