If you are not open to the unprecedented, you will repeat history. If you ARE open to the unprecedented, you will change history. The difference is prayer.

Imagination is the road less taken, but it is the pathway of prayer. Prayer and imagination are directly proportional: the more you pray the bigger your imagination becomes because the Holy Spirit supersizes it with God-sized dreams. One litmus test of spiritual maturity is whether your dreams are getting bigger or smaller.

God’s will isn’t about being in the right place at the right time; it’s about being the RIGHT PERSON, even if you find yourself in the wrong circumstances.

I don’t want my life to be explainable without the Holy Spirit. I want people to look at my life and know that I couldn’t be doing this in my own power.

Lessons from a sinking ship

Taken from Tim Elmore’s Leadership Blog 

The news on Saturday said an ocean liner slowly sank into the water off the coast of Tuscany in the Mediterranean. Four thousand people have been rescued and three have been reported dead so far. The photos of the “Costa Concordia” were unbelievable. Several on board said, “It was like no one was in charge.” This is a classic “leadership fail” that we can learn from.

1. Stay visible. Be public. Don’t run from the problem.

2. Prepare and execute a plan.

3. Give clear direction to followers.

4. Outsource what you must to furnish solutions.

5. Over-communicate.

We are the instruments through which God demonstrates His compassion to the world.
Pastor Scott Williams
The num­ber of seats we fill will not deter­mine the lega­cy of our church­es, but the depth to which the gospel pen­e­trates those lives.
The Resurgence Blog
I think a lot us need to forget about “God’s will for my life.” God cares more about our response to His Spirit’s leading today, in this moment, than about what we intend to do next year.
