Always be ready.

Always be prepared.

Be careful that you do not turn your dream away because it comes in unexpected packaging.

There are many praying, desiring, and preparing for something.

Yet, it seems like their  ship never comes into harbor.

So they wait anxiously on the dock searching the horizon.

While they are waiting, they sometimes pass up the dinghy, the row boat, the motor boat, the canoe, or maybe even the yacht because they are waiting for the ocean liner.

Not for one moment do they ever stop to think that maybe that the dinghy, row-boat, motor boat, canoe, or the yacht was the answer to all they were ever looking for.

That ocean liner never comes.

Day after day, they are passing up on their dreams because they are looking to rule the kingdoms of the world without ever learning to be stewards, love, appreciate, and grow all that they now see.

One has to learn  that sometimes what we need is not what we want.

What one is looking for is not the thing that will bless them and lend to the exponential success they are looking for.

Sometimes you have to give up looking for a little while.

Never be too big to reject that which seems too small for the bigness of your dreams.

The most beautiful and exotic flowers start off as plain seeds.

One has to plant a seed before one can expect a tree.

So it follows that a forest never comes about without first planting a seed.

This is a lesson that has been taught for  many centuries but yet still only grasped by the few.

When  you appreciate what you are given, what you see and turn what you have into something beautiful your dreams will always be in reach.

You will draw everything  to you that you will ever need.

Be careful of what you say you will not do?

Be careful of rejecting things because they appear to be beneath you?

Some things and some people are sent into your life to humble you.

Remember,

Diamonds begin as lumps of coal.

Cities start off as piles of brick or cement.

Even you were once a gleam in your mother’s eye a simple cell without your current complex form.

Yet you are here.

For that to happen someone had to accept and cherish that which you were so you could grow to be that which you are.

Be expectant

Be vigilant

Be ready
