I dwell in possibility!

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. They way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do in order to have what you want." - Margaret Young, was a popular singer and comedienne in the United States in the 1920s.


Faith - I think you only learn when you have been tested. I mean when things are going great, running smoothly its really easy street but trust me when you come up with a stumbling block wow this is the real test! I've heard that your faith must stand trial and I can now testify!
Truth be told up to now life was a breeze, I had it pretty nice!! so here comes challenges to test my character, first leg of the journey, ended up in Manchester. Literally down to my last pounds and still learning about asking for help I was like ok time to pull out the faith! The teaching job was supposed to start in a month's time (I forgot how expensive the UK is). That situation lit a fire and I had to act but I made the choice act in faith not fear or panic! Walked in to the school, asked if there was anything that I can do until the teaching started. The first answer was no, nothing you are scheduled to start in a month! I asked for four straight days still believing, unwavering faith, on the fifth day getting ready to go in to ask phone rings, one of the teachers had an emergency can you start today?! Boom!!!!
So,What did I learn today? Faith must inspire action. It alone cannot be verbal. Mental faith is insufficient. Faith is not believing, trying or hoping. It is knowing by which you do. Faith produces doers. Those who truly understand fewness of words and greatness of deeds. Faith is obedience to the urgings of spirit. It produces patience. It stifles the lust to complain and moan! Your life is the only true measure of your faith. We talk about faith, we want faith but we don’t want our faith to be tested. That’s how we get bigger on the inside. How many times have you said I can’t and I won’t and you DID!

Peace!!!

  1. I like this,FAITH... It is STRONG. So strong that is is mentioned by Jesus in the Bible as having the ability to move mountain. It is the ability to see the end before you start. It is the inner mental power to make things happen...to turn a situation around...to not be afraid of change and to not fail yourself before you start your journey. Peace Akousa.
