"An acorn can grow into an oak tree, but it cannot become a rose bush. You will always be you — a growing, healthy you or a languishing you — but God did not create you to be anybody else. He pre-wired your temperament. He determined your natural gifts and talents. He made you to feel certain passions and desires. He planned your body and mind. Your uniqueness is God-designed." - John Ortberg

Let the Journey Begin
I am on a quest!! I know without a shadow of a doubt there are going to be a few challenges along the way, but I have to stand, endure, be steadfast, stay committed and faithful. I am on the quest of becoming God's best version of myself.
For once in my life, I truly feel like I am on the right path when it comes to my career, developing my business, and other areas in my life. However, I don't want to become content and too comfortable. I want to make sure I don't lose sight of God along the way or get caught up in my self.
I don't want to be self-conscious nor do I want to be people conscious. I want to be GOD-Conscious. One of the best ways for me to do that is to become God's best version of myself. With that being said, God has led me to, "THE ME I WANT TO BE," by John Ortberg. We did this series about a few years ago in my church, but I don't think I was ready. I took this series for granted.
Now I am in a different place. While doing something on my laptop, I came across the study guide by accident. (How many of you know when it comes to God there are no accidents?) I completely forgotten about the book until then. Immediately, my spirit was stirred. I knew it was God pushing me in that direction to buy the book. So I did!! I am very much excited about reading this book and taking advantage of what God has in stored for me.
