Are you reluctant to take action? Do you have a dream or desire that has
remained with you for years? Are you
afraid to launch out into that next level?
Have you ever doubted yourself?
An old movie on TV moved me to action as I saw a distorted
reflection of myself. Like looking into a carnival mirror, I recognized the
limiting effect of self doubt as I watched Bertie in the movie “The King’s
Speech” (GP version recommended).
A
TRUE STORY
In this true story, Bertie, who had suffered from a
debilitating speech impediment all his life, was suddenly crowned King George
VI of England. With his country on the brink of war and in desperate need of a
leader, Bertie seeks out an unorthodox speech therapist. He coached the king
and helped him deliver a speech that inspired his people and united them in
battle. The King and the speech therapist remained friends throughout their
lives and formed an unbreakable bond as he continued to coach the king.
SELF DOUBT
Speaking is not a big issue for me, I am relatively
comfortable with public speaking – my issue is writing. I have wanted to write
for many years – I made a few false starts but I always stop myself. Until recently I had not completely activated my
desire because of self doubt.
THE COLLABORATOR
I’m writing now because I kicked doubt out when I realized
that I don’t have to do it alone. The good news is – you do not have to
accomplish anything alone either. You have a helper who will join forces with
you.
In John 14:16 Jesus told his disciples that another
comforter would be sent to them. The Greek word for comforter is Paracletos,
meaning – one called alongside to help. He has the wisdom (James 1:5) and the
ability (gifts and power) which He invites you to draw from.
ACTIVATE YOUR DREAMS
I am thankful to God for sending friends and family who
encouraged me to write and do all the things that God has placed in my heart.
Let me be one of the people sent to tell you to activate
what God has placed in your heart. Walk through the doors He has opened. You
can depend on the Holy Spirit, who wants to be involved in every aspect of
your life. He will grace you to manifest your dreams. I’m here to cheer you
on!
