Success is…

Success is…

Recently, while straightening up my work space, God showed me something I wrote when I was in college. At the time, it helped me to put things into perspective, and although I wasn’t saved at the time, I could see God’s hand even then. Hopefully, it will bless you like it did me when I read it.

Success is…
Success is being alone with yourself and enjoying it. Success is not having all the answers and not trying to pretend you do.
Success is being proud of your accomplishments and being happy for the accomplishments of others.
Success is the art of knowing who you are and accepting yourself just as you are. Success is growing old gracefully and loving every minute of just being alive. Success is being able to say no and not feel guilty.
Success is eating anything you want and not worrying about what you are going to look like afterwards.
And finally, success is learning to be present in this moment, at this time, with this life and being unafraid of what will be.

I pray that each one of you will learn what success means to you and that you will seek God’s will in everything you do, because when you listen for His voice, He speaks.

Until next time…

Be blessed!
