Success! But Wait! Who Are We kidding?

The power for success is – where?

"Don, can I find success in prophets writings or guru declarations?"

"Well Jon, Let’s face it; anyone, even God himself, can offer a formula for success. No matter if it has freed thousands, in all guarantees made, what would it be worth without your participation. That’s right, the main ingredient in any success formula is you. The burden is placed directly on you. Maybe you don’t want to hear that, but, like it or not, it is you who makes success happen and brings God’s promises into an experience.

"Bring God’s promises into an experience, what can that mean? Can you invoke God’s power for your benefit?"

"You better believe you can! All the power of the Universe is at your disposal."

"Wow, wait a minute, that can’t be, God doesn’t allow man to create . . . does he?"

"The fact is, man was created in God’s own image and likeness, man is a creative being. Your quest for success is not done blindly for it is in faith that you forge ahead. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

"Wait a minute, If that’s true, why can’t I create my own environment?"

"You’ve clearly ignored the truth up tell now what makes you think you can handle the truth?" The truth is, you can, by simply using God’s laws."

"How about success?"

Success is only a state of mind. What is success for one person may be failure to another, so success is what you believe it to be."

"But Don, I have worked hard and God has not supplied me anything up to now. My family has lost faith in me, and even my church friends don’t seem to care"

"Jon, another eye-opening fact is, no one, not even God will make it happen for you and quite frankly no one on earth cares if you make or not. Look around, in most instances, people want to see you fail. Friends, family, associates, don’t want to see you doing better than them, I’m sorry to say, sad but true."

"What can I put my trust in?"

"All events that affect you are actually controlled by you in other words, nothing is going to happen in your life without you accepting and allowing it happen. If you have a tyrant boss, don’t accept his/her conditions, find another job. One guarantee I can make, you won’t be successful if you don’t do any thing different than you did yesterday. If you accept the face of success, you are accepting God’s personal promise for your future. When all is said and done, success comes at a steep price, one you must pay to reap its benefits."

Do you make or break – yourself? As you can see, Jon is in a quandary, be believes everyone has let him down and success is beyond his reach.

A startling fact is, in God’s creation nothing moves forward without some effort being made by the participant. Sometimes the effort is tremendous and almost beyond measure, sometimes it is small and accomplished with little sweat. Anytime a person toils and sews the seeds of success a harvest time will follow. It’s a matter of how much effort he/she is willing to expend as to how much bounty his/her harvest will be. This is no earth shaking revelation, everyone knows success is self made, or do they?
