"Don't die with your gifts inside of you."
" Forget Saudi Arabia, for rich reserves of oil or Sierra Leone for its diamonds and other nations for their precious treasures. The graveyard is filled with treasures that can't be retrieved, it is filled with people who died with their gifts, who did not get the chance to empty themselves into life and people who refused to believe that certain opportunities were theirs to use those gifts for. "

Do not miss out on using the tools in your hands and your journey to impact your world and drive the changes attached to your existence.
Don't allow yourself to be the servant that goes home to your heavenly father and he ends up cursing you out because you had a whole lot of gifts and you never used them. Don't allow yourself to be the servant that suffered on earth and goes back home to suffer from the pain and anguish of your father who placed so much in you and just wanted you to believe that he could use you. Do not be the servant that goes back home and acts a fool when the Lord asks you what you did on earth and you state what you did for yourself and your little inner circle.
It is about us going to our graves empty, many of us do not achieve the greatness that we are meant to achieve because we are so afraid. It's alright I have been in that position, I have been in that moment but when I watched a video which played out a man's life I had to get my life together. In the time spent watching that video I made up my mind - this book will get published, these solutions I want to find in the world oh for sure I will find ways to make it happen. God will not give me solutions to improve people's lives, he won't give me a book that can touch people's lives and I'm going to sit here like "No publishing house wants to pick me" nope siree let me use myself as an example if that helps. If nobody will help you, help yourself !
Call God on that matter, He always has resources.. you might have to be patient but trust me He will work it out some way. Imagine if you die with a cure, the potential was in you to provide a cure and you die that means, that because it died with you people are going to die after you with no hope. The hope that there was passed away and in that case people's blood will be on your hands. You can imagine how infectious some disease are that require a cure, sometimes it's something so simple but all those people will die because it was on you to bring that solution to the world. It was on you to patent those ideas, it was on you to save those peoples' lives and your scared little behind decided not to. You better watch yourself in this life and it might not seem like something of greatness but imagine if your purpose causes you to question "Lord why is it that when I have the boldness to speak to somebody on public transit who looks a little downcast, a little disappointed, sad that I end up impacting their life, what am I the transit minister" then that right there is enough. You can joke with God have your laughter with Him but be serious about your gift, be serious about the way you are able to reach out to somebody. You might be the public transit counselor of earth, you might not get famous but trust me YOU remain in the hearts of those you had the boldness to impact, those you had the boldness to ask "are you alright today?", those who you were bold enough to speak to. Those who you are bold enough to say "pour your heart out and let me listen", do not go to your grave with such packages in your hands. You are never out of service, even in your weakest moments. Remember that!
It does not matter if you think something is your purpose and you go trying it and it doesn't work out, you know why? because you STILL tried you are better than the man who NEVER tried and didn't find out. Try things in life do not be limited by your human capabilities behave like you're superhuman because you know what.. YOU ARE ! You are the intricate design that makes up the unit, that completes the person known as You. It is so deep within you that you just have to search and learn to love yourself, to continually empower yourself in order that you might reach out and impact others. Sometimes the greatest impact we make on a person is just to say hello and smile, that's it. It might be to read them a story, read them a piece of poetry, read them a quote or smile. Smiling is the most universal language, it does not have language barriers.. you don't need to be literate in Chinese to smile at a Chinese person for them to understand, you don't need to know how to speak Swahili for a smile to translate. It doesn't matter what language or location just give their grumpy self a smile, give people something to smile about.
That is all I wanted to say,
