Reboot

If you're reading this post then I know 2 things...

A. you have a computer
B. at some point you've had to reboot that joker

Well my lovely sistahs, i'm here to declare July 24th as my day to reboot, restart my machine and reintroduce myself to focus, commitment and discipline. Somewhere somehow, one day at a time, I've managed to allow laziness to invade my space. Not only did laziness take up residence, he brought along tiredness and excuses (notice the usage of masculine pronoun here...i'll save feminine pronouns for things like wisdom and knowledge. lol). Now yall know that I do not have a problem conducting a little self evaluation and being "real" with myself. Once I realized that my operating system was moving slower than normal and it was taking longer than usual to logon, I started doing a little trouble shooting to see if I could find the problem. I tried to debug the system by looking for the usual suspect - the devil (hmp...we give him too much credit!); I then tried to compress some files by "taking some things off of my plate." Well, when it was all said and done and I tried everything I knew to do, I realized it was time to reboot because girlfriend had just gotten plum lazy. Yep, I was the enemy in-a-me (get it, I was my own enemy).

Here are a few things that I'm going to recommit to doing now that I'm properly diagnosed:
1. I'm going to recommit to learning the memory scriptures. We've had 19 memory scripture posts and I may have memorized 10 of them. So....with that said, there will not be any new memory scriptures, we will rework the 19 posts that we already have. Beginning August 1, you will see Joshua 1:8 and John 1:1, our very first scriptures.
2. I'm going to recommit to a daily confession. Here's one that I put together and plan on speaking every morning. Feel free to speak along with me...

I am a magnet that attracts great things. My God will not withhold any good thing from me because He desires that I prosper and be in good health, even as my soul prospers. On this day I rejoice because I have the mind and wisdom of God and His spirit continually leads me into all truth.

Do you need to reboot? You may have a completely different diagnoses but I challenge you to look within and dare to reboot. I also challenge you to do something for 30 days straight, something you haven't done, and report the results. I cannot wait to blog about my experiences after I've spoken my daily confession for 30 days. Watch how it's about to be on and poppin up in here!

love ya!

Memory Scripture 19

Acts 20:24

...What matters most to me is to finish what God started: the job the Master Jesus gave me of letting everyone I meet know all about this incredibly extravagant generosity of God. (message)
