Do you ever have a vision for yourself that feels too good to be true or think you’re not capable because of your perceived lack of knowledge in a particular area? If so, I want to encourage you because you’re not alone!
I often doubt my visions because they don’t align with what I consider to be my shortcomings. I tell myself, “You’re not smart enough, you’re not like ‘them’ (whoever they are, lol),” and the list goes on. But these are just thoughts. What truly matters is taking action and being consistent. In today’s world, we have technology at our fingertips. We used to search for a dictionary, look for a term, and read its definition. Now, we can ask Siri, Alexa, Gemini, Chat GPT, and similar tools for insight or answers. These are excellent tools when used correctly. The same goes for social media.
Did you know the so-called “algorithm” will satisfy your desires? If you engage with negative, cynical posts, it will show you more of those. If you interact with positive, uplifting posts, it will show you more of those. So, be mindful of what you engage with on social media.
Now, let’s get back to the topic. Whatever life you envision, I hope you’ll change your habits to help you achieve it. For instance, we must change our money habits to improve our financial situation.
I envision myself thriving in every aspect of my life. I want to handle life’s changes and situations gracefully as I seek God’s goodness for myself and others. Life is precious, and I hope we always approach it with gratitude. No matter our beliefs, they will certainly matter once we’re gone. Let us both make the most of our time here.
“As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD!”

Prayer
Father God, please bless the reader to see your vision for them. Please enable them to write it down and make it plain. You are a God who only wants good for your creation. Let them see who they are in you and not who they think they are not or should be. Give the reader the courage to act and make the necessary changes to propel them into a better future for themselves and everyone connected to them. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
