Daily BITUB- “The Lesson Within”

"The Lesson Within" 

What lesson did I just learn? I mean really, if I'm feeling this much pain, this confusion, this hurt then surely there's a reason for it. There has to be something I'm meant to take from it. But what is it? Am I even asking the right questions? Have you ever been there? Sitting in that quiet moment when the world feels heavy and you're just trying to make sense of it all. Wondering what you're supposed to learn from the struggle, the setback, the heartache. Maybe you're there right now. Searching for answers, trying to turn pain into purpose. But here's the thing, finding those answers isn't easy. Especially if you're not asking the right questions. And it's even harder when you're not turning to the right people to help you find them. Because at some point, you will come face to face with things and people that challenge your worth. They'll make you question your beauty. They'll make you doubt your strength. They'll try to distract you from the goals you've set and the greatness you were created for. But the real question is, "Will you let them? Because negative people only have the power we give them. Doubt only grows when we feed it. Fear only wins when we surrender to it. There's far too much good, too much light, too much you in this world for the negativity to matter. So instead of asking, "Why me?", start saying, "Watch me. Answer the challenge with confidence. Stand firm in your blessings. Draw strength from your experience. And most importantly, hold tight to your faith in God, because His love for you will never waver, even when everything else does.

Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is from Luke 6:38.

"Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you."

Have a great day ahead everyone.

Daily BITUB- “Aim Higher”

"Aim Higher"

"The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short, but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark." — Michelangelo

How often have we done exactly that? How often have we lowered expectations for others, for ourselves, for what we're truly capable of becoming? Sometimes it feels easier doesn't it? Because aiming higher means raising the bar. It means challenging comfort zones, stepping into uncertainty, and believing that "better" isn't good enough. I can tell you that over the years I've learned words like initiative, innovation, perseverance, and success don't come from meeting the standard. No, they come from exceeding it. They come from those who dare to do more, to think differently, to push through when others stop. They come from those who hit a wall and refuse to quit until they've climbed over it. So, every goal you set, make it a stretch. Push yourself beyond what you believe your limits are. Redefine what's possible not just for you, but for everyone watching you push. Why settle for "good enough", when greatness is within reach? Why dream small, when you were built to persevere? I've said it often, there are no unrealistic dreams, only unrealistic limitations. Don't let excuses explain away your potential. Let experience, growth, and hard-earned lessons be the fuel that drives you forward. So aim too high. Dream too big. Push too far. Because even if you fall short, you'll land further than you ever thought possible.

Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is from Matthew 17:20.

 "Our faith can move mountains."

Have a great day ahead everyone.
