Ready or not
'We are gathered at this funeral ceremony and many of us think that this ceremony is held for the dearly departed, no, it is not for him, Moses is up there, singing with the angels, this ceremony is not for him, it is for us.
Each one of us seated here is qualified to die. We are qualified to depart from this earth, from our bodies like our brother here, the question is who is next?
How ready are you for the life that does not end?'
3/10/15
As we hurry around hustling and trying to get rich and famous we must bear it in mind that there is a common destiny for all men, a destination from which all the gold in India cannot buy passage back to this life.
We ought to live prepared, not out of fear but out of faith.
Have a blessed week, live ready.

Dear Child
Dear Child,
On your journey you
will find out these truths
When you want to
launch out, just do it
There’s nothing really
holding you back, nothing but yourself
The mountains that
seem insurmountable, they exist,
But in your mind
Remember child,
All that you need for
the journey
For the high times
and the low times, for all times
You already have
them, they have been given to you
Nothing, not anything
should hold you back
Listen to that voice,
listen to your heart
When the noise and
chaos seems to drown you
To warp out the strength
that is your faith,
Listen.
For the direction you
need is just a breath away
Look inwards, listen
inwards.
To the still small
voice, to your heart,
For there you will
find all the answers and by faith move
For if you do not
move, faith does not work.
Nothing can stand in
your way,
Nothing but you.
