The kingdom of heaven is like yeast

The Kingdom of Heaven is like the yeast a woman used in making bread. Even though she put only a little yeast in three measures of flour, it permeated every part of the dough.

Yeast represents influence and all you need is a little bit to affect your whole life.

Sanctified

Sanctified, what it really means!

Frustration vs. Clarity

Working out identity, purpose and vision, is all about gaining clarity. Knowing who you are, why you are, and where you are going is a recipe for action and realizing potential. Being unsure about who you are, why you are and where you are going is a recipe for frustration and the inertia mindset (remaining stationary and stagnate).

With the right understanding frustration becomes a sign that clarity is lacking. There are three stages where I have experienced frustration on my journey of identity, purpose and vision, and they were all created by the lack of clarity.

The harvest is RIPE

Jesus said, "I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest."  You can tell a harvest is ripe by the way it looks. He said this while a whole town was coming out to see him because of the testimony of one woman. 

The harvest is ripe, so go get you some!

A vehicle gives you access to the roads of potential

A vehicle gives us access to a certain kind of road.  A mountain bike is perfect for a trail in the woods.  A car is perfects for paved roads.  Each vehicle gives us access to the kind of road it was made for.  Our gifts, abilities and interests are vehicles that give us access to certain groups of people who have similar interests. When you identify a vehicle, you also identify the road you should take.

Made for Earth

The way we view this life affects our priorities and the decisions we make.  If we think that we are to sit and wait for the coming of Jesus, then our interactions with the world will be very limited.  But by not participating in the community and in society we forfeit any ability to affect change, have influence and bring about transformation.  Jesus said, "Go into the world and make disciples of all nations".  Our mission is on earth and we are well equipped for the task.    

Becoming Mature

Maturity comes from growing in experience.  Experience comes from applying knowledge. There is a big difference between someone who is familiar with facts and someone who learns for the explicit purpose to use what they learn.    

What to do when things look different than you thought

On the journey of vision and purpose things will not always look just like you imagined.  Sometimes you don't make it as far as fast as you thought.  Or you don't accomplish what you thought you would by a certain time.  In times like these, it's easy to get hyper focused on what you don't see, that discouragement begins to set in. In the emotional haze of discouragement it's hard to remember why you are doing what you are doing or where you are going.  

It's times like these that we must remember.

Fear of failure vs Commitment

Content starts at minute 17:45.  Fear of failure is in direct opposition to commitment.  Fear of failure says, I can't, I won't, it's to hard, it won't work out.  Commitment says, I can, I will, whatever obstacles I face I can figure out how to overcome, regardless of what it takes I will win.  

It's time to saddle up the ponies with some commitment!

Potential

Potential is the unrealized, untaped ability in everyone of us. It's time to let it out!
