Just because it's a new year doesn't mean...
1. You are going to do anything different this year. But it feels nice telling people that you are.
2. You are going to look any different, but if you keep telling yourself you are, well we will just keep your lie a secret.
3. You are going to have less challenges, because the older you get, the more you have. The more you do, the more the stress. The more you talk, the more you will be held accountable.
4. Your family is going to listen to you, share concerns, or even bother with you this year. Most likely, they have enough going on in their lives.
5. You are any closer to God than last year because you attend church a little more, participate in a spiritual fast, and give away more money and time this year. Keep in mind, God wants a personal relationship with you and sometimes simply listening to HIM and doing what HE says is all that is required.
Lastly, just because it's a new year doesn't mean...
6. You are finally being fed the truth from deceptive family, friends, co-workers, media, etc., instead, it just means they are orchestrating yet another way to cover for self, make you look like a fool, and dumb you down so they can get what they want, so wake up to those of you who are still sleeping!
Thanks for stopping by, and oh yes, Happy New Year!

New Year's Resolution? None Here
Happy New Year everyone!
Now just because it's another new year, I'm not requiring myself to create any particular New Year's resolution. However, I am requiring myself to apply what I have learned last year and do some things that will make my life a little bit more interesting and settled for this year. Some of which includes: taking care of the basics like relationship and parenting goals, money management and my own personal walk with the Lord (without being confined to church walls and men's twisted teachings of biblical truths. Can I get an Amen?) I started changing my outlook in these areas of my life back in 2009. Then by 2011, I received some life-changing plans. Everything I did answered the following question, "How do I apply biblical truths to my life each day?" This year it's time to give birth to what I have been learning. Notice, I have been in a state of emergency with every change (9-11.) It is indeed time to come up higher, folks!
There are those who restrict the intelligence of the Most High (I am referring to the one true God) to their inner circles. They feel like the Average Joe just isn't privy to his wisdom apart from the biblical stories. But if you choose to have a personal relationship with a being beyond basic human understanding, then you have to know that he is one who always has a plan for your life which is, dare I say it, better than yours! A man who wants to keep you dependent on him, like a crack head needing a fix, is not going to reveal any universal plan in its entirety or any prophetic word that will lead you away from him! He will leave those details out! Why? Because he needs your money and your service to promote his plan. He doesn't care about your personal goals.
Do you really know what the one true God's plan is for your life? If you take the time to know the Lord, study his word and be open to a relationship, he will reveal his plan step-by-step. Now what is revealed to you will affect those around you and they may or may not be on-board. From the politicians to the local store owner, what you do with your time and money affects everyone besides your family. This is why everyone wants you to stay close to them. Momma doesn't want to let go. Daddy wants to keep you around. Your spouse wants you to stay at home all the time. Your children want you to play with them all the time. No one wants or will give you the time to just think! You have to steal that time!
The Pharaohs of this earth have ignored God's plagues like in the Book of Exodus. The little people ie.) Moses and Aaron (you and me) keep telling these kings, leaders and others what to look out for; yet, they continue to act stubborn in their ways. So sad, but true, it won't be long before they will be wiped out (ie. look at the many different world leaders who are no longer with us to date.) The same destruction will happen on the national and local levels. So if you are hurting for money, sell your business and add that money to your savings account. If you need some debt relief, start making phone calls and negotiating with creditors. If you are hoping that a dead-end relationship on a personal or professional level will turn around, not now, you have a choice either stick it out or end it. There is no, "wait and see--things will get better."
Now I am not on this blog site just because I enjoy blogging, nor am I on here, because I get a few cents from an ad, but I am here because I have a calling on my life to write. I wouldn't know that unless I had allowed myself to be in touch with the one true God. For decades, I was oppressed by family, school, businesses, other associations, and friends to walk a path that was created for someone else. I had very little say at one point in my life on what I was supposed to do and say, because of all my brainwashing. In other words, what I thought I wanted wasn't really what I wanted. Now that I am growing older and wiser, I realized that what I had been "buying" into over the years on a personal and professional level isn't what I really wanted. Yes indeed, it's time for something different to happen in my life and yours too!
As I write, I think of you reader, you probably realize too that you were sold a bag of garbage for far too long! You allowed people, places, things, circumstances and the like to influence your decision making. You probably made some poor choices while the atmosphere you were in appealed to your five senses, now you are regretting some things. But can I tell you, you can get out of your mess and you will! But you will have to do much such as: read more about the subject area that troubles you, write about it and to those who you need to help you, save and spend money to get yourself out of trouble, and most of all try to keep the peace until your day of freedom comes which means not yelling, slamming doors, cussing people out--just acting like a fool! When your freedom comes, my friend, you will be stronger and wiser, I promise you that! It takes one to know one, so the old adage goes!
Sometimes we all walk toward pits then fall in them without anyone around to warn us. This happens because there is something we need to learn while we are in the pit and sometimes the only way to get our attention to do good is through a bad situation. As I write, I think of the story of Joseph in the Bible. But when it is all said and done, like Joseph you will have your day to shine!
Know that there is something beyond the skies much greater than these weak humans on this planet! You don't have to settle for man's dumb, dark philosophies! You don't have to agree with everyone. You definitely don't have to sell your soul to the Devil unless that is what you want but if you have already, you can reverse the curse, but you will definitely have to be on the winning side with the one true God on a consistent basis for that to happen which requires a sacrifice (Jesus performed the blood one already,) I mean all that dark thinking and stuff!
Remember whatever choice you make in this world will affect you on the other side (you do know there is another side after death, right?) It is up to you to either wallow in the mistakes of the past or do something today to mark your future in the most positive way.
Thank God, not me, for today's inspiring message.

Over 30 Days Into the New Year Already!
Sometimes you lose track of time when you are having fun! Such was the case when I stopped by my blog and noticed I hadn't updated it in awhile. Lately, I have been very busy and only getting busier with each passing day!
I have been asked by friends when is my next book coming out, I can't help but respond, "Did you read the first one?" There are some nice people out there, don't get me wrong, but seriously when you are showing someone support especially a writer, you have to put your money where your mouth is! I have personally shelled out my share of cash to help those who can help me as well as people I don't know personally and who can't do one thing for me, but smile and say, "Thank you."
If there is one thing I am learning about article writing, pinging, blogging, social bookmarking, and video marketing it is you need time, time and more time in the beginning before you see one penny in your account.
The TV is often shut off, the children have learned how to entertain themselves while I work from home, and the phone is basically non-existent. I tell my family, "You want to spend the money then let me make the money." When you are on the fast track to build dreams, yes you do take the time to smell the roses every now and then, but when you are just getting started, the roses are going to wilt, baby! I will see them when they bloom again!
Stay blessed and have a happy New Year,
Nicholl
