Don't be Self Consumed on your Journey ...Reach out and Help Someone along the Way!

While you may feel like yes!, this is my time to move and to shake and make things happen in my life while you are on your journey, it is extremely important to not become self-consumed!  Don't get to a point where you are so focused on you that you forget everyone else around you and you neglect an opportunity to HELP someone!  While you are on your journey take the time to reach out and pull somebody along impart some wisdom that you've gained from your travels thus far, give friendly instruction and if need be hold their hand until it;s safe to let go and watch them grow as well, which at times may not be until you've reached the end of the trek, so be prepared.  Helping someone will provide a sense of servitude and humility which is what we should all strive for no matter where we are in life!  Along life's journey God gives us tests and how we handle or respond to those test can directly and indirectly affect both our progression and how we come out at the end of the trip.  Since God has been gracious enough to Bless us it is imperative to turn around and Bless others!  It's o.k to be focused on the mark but have tunnel vision with a touch of peripheral vision so we don't miss those precious opportunities to impact someones life and make a difference. 

Remember while Jesus was on His journey to Samaria, He stopped for a drink of water and while He was stopped He ministered to the Samaritan woman, and although she may not have continued along with His journey physically what He imparted  allowed her to travel spiritually!

When you are on your journey...expect to go Alone!

Yes, I said it, you've got to go it alone!  Sometimes while you are on your journey you will realize that you are alone, no one wants to go with you or you you feel like you have no support in your endeavors.  The reason is it's YOUR journey.  Not everyone will understand where you are going or where God is taking you! don't start kicking friends and family to the side, it's not that they don't love you, it's just that they don't understand...some will and some won't. And you've got to realize that it's okay, even when you feel like you are the only one out in the middle of the ocean with just a canoe and surrounded by water and no land in sight or even a friendly hand to say it's gonna be ok.  Besides you don't want any and everyone on your journey to plant seeds of doubt simply because they are not on your level and don't understand your assignment.  The only person you need with you anyway is the one who sent you on your journey...God!  He is always there so don't loose sight or focus even when you feel alone in this thing!  ...Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will neither turn to the right hand or to the left.  Deut 2:27

When you are on a journey you have to...MOVE!

...Yes you have to move!  You can't be on a journey and be stagnant and not do anything.  It just doesn't work like that!  You have to move and keep on moving, so I did just that I knew that I needed something for myself and my family that would jump start our path back to being healthy, and I needed for myself something that would jump start my total wellbeing, health wise, spiritually, mentally, financially etc. So my job was to do the research, my job was to educate myself about things and seek out guidance from the Lord and also people who were in the know.  As far as being able to invest in products I thought would help me along my journey, I knew I didn't have the money at the time to buy anything.  But that didn't say I couldn't do my research and prepare myself for when I did.  That didn't say I couldn't talk to people and make connects and align myself for the right time.  What good would having the financial means to do something I really wanted to do if I didn't know what to do with it?  ...Never thought about it that way hunh?  I researched products that I recently heard about and products I knew about from a while back.  And I sought out what I felt would be a good fit for me and my families lifestyle, and I honed in on my target until I was ready to make my next move.  When you are on a journey you have to move.  Journey means:  The act of traveling from one place to another; a trip.  A process or course likened to traveling; a passage
 You simply can't get from point A to point B without some form of progressive movement.  You have to get up and...MOVE. One step at a time until you reach your goal!   "When you sound the signal to move on, the tribes camped on the east side of the Tabernacle must break camp and move forward.  Num 10:5 --Let's all move together!
