God and I have a very unique relationship. Truth be told, I've cursed a few times when engaging in dialogue with the Most High. See, I am very transparent with Him. A few days ago, while driving home, I petitioned God to make his promises REAL. See, He said I can have that which I am willing to work for. I rattled off the names of people who were able to found brands and industries: Diddy/Brother Love, Tommy Hilfiger, Oprah, Tyler Perry, Russell Simmons, etc. I see absolutely NO reason why my dreams should die and theirs be allowed to thrive and flourish. Now, I am in competition with NO ONE. I do not have to have their success; I simply want what's MINE.
One thing I've learned to do is be SPECIFIC when praying. My sincerest hope is that God will facilitate the development of nurturing relationships with the RIGHT people. People who share my vision and have a true desire to serve. Once I had outlined my expectations, I SURRENDERED ALL to Him: my worries, fears, expectations, anxieties, and uncertainties. The funny thing about surrendering is that the resultant peace can be FRIGHTENING. I'm trying. One day at a time. Peace and blessings to you all!
