Standing Firm (Moving Forward)

At times moving forward in your life will require you to do nothing else but simply stand. As much as we want situations to change, problems to go away, for "Calgon to take us away, sometimes you just have to stand. Ephesians 6:13-14 says "and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then" Ecclesiastes 10:4 says, If the spirit of the ruler rises against you, Do not leave your post.

There's a post with your name on it. Think of your post as your family, home, potential, purpose, your biggest dream. You've got to stick to that post and let nothing pull you away. The post is what I wake up to and the last thing I think about every night. My post grounds me, roots me, pushes me, it's my responsibility. My post is next to me, in front of me, always in proximity. You got it? don't you dare leave your post, no matter how tough it gets. When you've tried everything else, just stand. As for me...I'm done allowing people, problems or fears trying to drive my vision, dictate my position, and tell me what I can't do. I'm gonna stand, what are you going to do?
