International it is!!!!

Press Play & Read!!!

Who says Faith & Prayer doesn't work? Since the last time I checked in there has been so much going on, doors opening, opportunities coming up, and in the middle of it all here I am! I don't take anything for granted and last year this time when I wrote out my list of things to do this was on that list. Don't ever count out your dreams and goals; even if they seem like they are so far away. I'm so blessed and humbled even more and I just wanted to share this with you and also encourage you to continue to strive for what you believe in, even if you can't physically see it.

Ok, here it is..... As of 5/22/12 The First Day of The Rest of My Life: How my storms became my story went international!!!!! It is now available in Great Britain and Europe on http://www.amazon.co.uk/

I am convinced that everything I have gone through, every heartache, every pain, all of the tears, every let down, the lies, the betrayal, and everything we may go through in life (because we do go through these things) is always worth it in the end. I've learned that everything God does in our lives is only a set up for something bigger than we could ever imagine. Yes, he has great things in store for you and you have to know that his plan for your life doesn't include failing you. I'm learning even those who meant it for my bad were just a tool for God to get the glory in the end.

I won't hold you guys long, but I had to share my testimony to let you all know that it doesn't matter what "They" say, God has the final ruling in the matter. Ephesians 3:20 says; Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, so let God, be God and know that He's still able. Continue to do more than exist, Live!!

You can't stop my flow......

Good Friday to you all!! I know, I know, it's late getting to you. But, never fear Heather is here to give you your weekend motivation! Ever wondered why so many people look at you when you have a dream or idea as if it is unobtainable, or that you won't be able to make it if you stepped out of the box and did something different? Well, I'm here to answer that very question and put your mind at ease. Dream Killers is what they are called i.e: Those who look for others to fail or wishes for one not to succeed in order to show themselves credible. In other words those that wish they were you and can't for the life of them figure out why it is you're as blessed as you are. Now keep in mind a dream killer can be your friend, an associate, classmate, or even your family (it happens to the best of us). Today I wanted to give you the motivation to notice one of these posers and what to do when you encounter them. #1. If someone you hold near and dear says to you; "I will believe it when I see it", that my friend is a dream killer. #2. If they find every reason in the book why you shouldn't step out on faith and take a chance on your dreams. #3. If they can't find the joy in you doing something no one else had the courage to do you might just have found your dream killer. I've learned in my new beginning that everyone won't be happy for you and everyone won't see what you see when it comes to your visions and goals. but, be mindful of those people and keep them at bay because it's sad to say you may soon have to separate yourself from those very people. When God elevates you, be it spiritual, financially, educationally, or any other way your entire atmosphere has to adjust to the shift! That means you may lose a friend, a loved one, a family member along the way, but in the end you will know that they were not built for your new season. It also helps you in the future to notice these things before hand and as my Bishop says; "When I see crazy I cross the street". It's ok to love those people from a distance, it's okay to still speak and show them love when you see them. But, don't let these people be the death of you because they don't believe in you! Every time you are elevated take some time to evaluate the people who are around you. If they are not moving in the same direction as you are or taking notice of what it is you have been blessed with and wanting to know what it is they can do to get there too. Control+Alt+Delete!! The saying is true; "Birds of a feather, flock together". Have a great weekend and remember: "Your past is your past, so after you have dropped it off and left it don't go back and pick it up! Your future is bright"!

Be Encouraged and KNOW!!!

Today I'm encouraged to encourage others that despite your current situation and/or circumstance things are never as bad as they seem. I always look at the glass half full because things surely could have been the other way. Whatever goals, dreams, aspirations, ideas, or thoughts you may be having that seem unobtainable take the time and put it down on paper and I swear things will be more clear to u and that dream will be that much closer to coming true. "It only takes a spark to get a get a fire going"... This is a part from a song that I sang in the choir as a child and as I think back on it now it is so relevant and true. I am a testament that anything is possible and that regardless of the odds against you if it is meant for you no matter who is against it it will happen. I'm learning everyday that people who don't know can't grow so I don't get so upset anymore about those who don't believe. God couldn't have placed me in a better place at a better time than this. I am convinced that his will shall be done concerning my life and everything in it. Lately I have been led to help motivate, push, and encourage others and even if it's not about me that's OK. I'm just happy I could be apart of something great. We miss our blessings sometimes so busy worrying about ourselves, but I now know that I can be blessed just by the mere act of blessing someone else. So Continue to strive for greatness and though there will be rainstorms that may come to cloud your judgement, I'd rather get wet and go thru the storm than to stay dry and not experience anything that may help me later on in life. Just had to get this out and i hope all of the rambling at least triggered something in someone who is reading. Be blessed and know that you already are....
