I Stop Me!

Bagaimana bila ada seseorang yang sedemikian ngotot menghalangi Anda mencapai kesuksesan? Bagaimana bila orang itu juga yang selalu merintangi Anda di setiap usaha Anda? Bagaimana perasaan Anda terhadap orang itu? Bagaimana kalau orang itu selalu muncul sambil membawa segudang alasan untuk menghalangi Anda betindak?

Bagaimana kalau ternyata orang itu adalah Anda sendiri? Boleh jadi... Ada kemungkinan, diri Anda sendiri adalah musuh terbesar Anda dalam meraih kesuksesan dan kemajuan.

Pernahkah Anda memergoki diri Anda sendiri berkata, "Aku tidak mungkin melakukannya..."? Tidakkah suara kecil itu juga yang selalu merintangi tujuan Anda dan membawa banyak sekali alasan bahwa setiap ide yang Anda pikirkan itu mustahil?

Keterbatasan yang Anda miliki memang cenderung membuat Anda berpikir untuk membatasi diri. Tapi keputusan tetap di tangan Anda. Suara kecil itu bisa berbicara apa saja, tapi Anda bisa menentukan pilihan.

Relakah Anda dipenjara oleh keterbatasan? Tentu saja tidak! Bayangkan apa yang bisa Anda capai bila Anda 100% mendukung diri Anda sendiri...

Nah, silahkan berkhayal dan mulailah kehidupan!

the Transformer

Today's word with Joel & Victoria:


You life will move in the direction of your most dominant thoughts. You can choose to think according the world’s system or according to God’s system. The world’s system says to “look out for number one,” to do whatever you can to get ahead and make yourself happy. But in God’s system, you find happiness and blessing by serving and putting others first. God doesn’t want us to have an attitude that is self-centered, or jealous, or greedy. He knows that those thoughts end in destruction. God wants us to live a blessed and prosperous life. That’s why the scripture tells us to renew our minds, or transform our thinking. We have to make sure our thoughts are the same as God’s thoughts. Just like a computer, whatever you allow into your mind is what will come out in your attitude and actions. The more you meditate on God’s Word, the more you will transform your thinking to be like God’s thinking. Choose today to focus on the Word of God and allow your mind to be renewed. As you focus on God’s thoughts, you will see your actions become more like Him, and you will see His hand of blessing in every area of your life.
