NEVER say NEVER.. Keep the faith

The time is NOW. NOW is the time to take charge. NOW is the time to believe in yourself. NOW is the time to believe that you have what it takes. NOW is the time to believe you are capable of it. NOW is the time to go after your passion and your hearts desire.

God has placed in each and everyone of us a desire, a passion for something. Whether it be a talent, helping people in need, becoming a famous actor or whatever your hearts desire is. I know for me God has given me an amazing gift of photography.

I started out shooting a friend who did some modeling on the side about 8 years ago, and never in my wildest dreams did I EVER think I would be a photographer full time. For so long I struggled wondering what my passion was, what was my gift that everyone "so" called has!?! I was clueless. But because of her, if I never listened; I would not be where I am today with the help of the Lord my God. God has blessed me with an amazing eye to see things in a new light or in a new way. For the past 8 years God has opened so many doors for me because I chose to BELIEVE in my passion, BELIEVE that this is what I was called to do, and BELIEVE that I was worth this gift that he granted me. And because I believed and spoke things into existence, and believed that the Lord would pave my way. HE did! I have been able to travel, shoot celebrities, weddings, engagements, families, fashion models and the list goes on. And I have the Lord to thank for everything!

So what are YOU passionate about? What is YOUR desire? What is YOUR gift? Do you know?If not take a step back and take a good look at your life. What makes you most happy? What could you see yourself doing the rest of your life? Are you a talented singer? photographer? artist? etc... But never thought you could do it full time? Are you willing to take a step of faith and believe that this is your calling for your life and that the Lord will make a way when there seems to be no way?

I want you guys to know something, if you have a gift and you are passionate about it. PURSUE it. Do what you have to do to make it happen. Connect with the people you have to connect with. Everything is about networking and who you know. Don't let people tell you, you cant do it, or this would never work, or tear you down. If you have a talent, and it comes naturally to you. That is your gift from God. God would not give it to you if HE didn't think you could DO it! If you are already pursuing your passion, you are one step closer to doing what you have been CALLED to do.

Maybe your biting at the bit to quit your job, and just do what you love. All I have to say is do it. Why not take a step of faith, and believe with expectancy that its going to happen for you. You already have what it takes, so why not put it to work? Yea, not everyone is going to agree with you on it, but you know what.. Who cares what they think. Everyone else thinks they know what is best, but what I think is that YOU actually have the COURAGE to pursue what YOU have been CALLED to do with your life. And if you are listening to the voice of God, you have nothing to worry about. The Lord will not lead you astray, and he will take care of you every step of the way. If the Lord is FOR you, who can be against you? (I would recommend seeking God first in prayer) But if this is God's will for your life, he will make a way.

• Go after every "can't" in your vocabulary heart & mind! Bcuz of Christ's work, can't is no longer relevant to you!!! Phil 3:14
• A Christian walks in the way of the world with a belief! A kingdom person walks in the power of that belief!
  
• It is wisdom to plan a thing, yet know that God's wisdom determines the results!
  
• You ensure longevity & enduring success through staying connected to the ONE who made you successful in the first place!
  
• In the time of FAVOR & BLESSING rejoice & be optimistic, BUT DON'T STOP PRAYING!
  

Everyone remember your time is NOW. Do what you love. Do what you were called to do. God is on YOUR side.
