Then the Lord said to me,
“Write My answer plainly on tablets,
so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.
[Habakkuk 2:2 New Living Translation]
Good Morning Beloved,
What a great day! A brand new day, full of possibilities. This weekend I had the pleasure of visiting a few of my friends, and seeing the progress being made in their respective building projects. I love seeing the finished product, of someones’ idea. Honestly, it is frustrating to me to hear someone constantly talk about their vision, and never do anything towards it… as if it will drop from the sky. I had all but stopped talking about large part of mine for that very reason. I wasn’t doing anything on Regal 1. My focus was elsewhere. Now I believe I’ve gotten a clearer perspective on what I’m supposed to be doing. As I was reading Habakkuk, from the New Living Translation, it jumped out at me. God said, “Write My Vision plainly, so that a runner can carry the message to others”. It gives vision a totally different level of importance. It places the ownership of the thing into the hands of God. Suddenly, it is not me alone, struggling, and trying to get something done. I don’t have to worry about whether or not it will happen. I don’t have to stress over labor, finances, materials, buildings, permits, licenses, permission, etc. Yes, it is vital that we ‘cultivate our craft’. We plan, work and learn all that we can … that is the ground work, but we have no need to fear, or to become anxious over it. Procrastination is our enemy and is rooted in fear! Regardless to whether it is a home building project, or a desire to begin a brand new ministry. We need to remember that we are the managers of the project, God is the CEO/CFO/COO and the Owner… in other words He’s the Boss! As we are attentive to what is written in His Word and what He has written on our hearts — it will come together.
So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.
Galatians 6:9
… and that Beloved is Good News!
U Blessed!
Have A Fabulous Day… and DARE TO DREAM!

God has a purpose and a plan for each of us, and in Christ, He has already given us all that we need to fulfill that plan.
