Will you rob the grave or will the grave rob you?

I once heard that the richest place in the world is the cemetery. It is a place filled with unlived dreams, aspirations, books, songs, and ideas. What will you allow the grave to rob you of? What dream have you deferred? What possibility have you brushed off? What vision have you set aside for a later time? Well…. I am here to proclaim to you to “Stand still no more” Pick up that pen, tune up that voice, dust off that business plan. The time is now. During a crisis is the perfect time to get creative. What are you afraid of? The Bible says in 2 Timothy 1:7, that GOD did not give us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Are you afraid of failing? A friend once shared with me something his mother told him concerning moving out of state for the first time. She said, “Just go. You can always come back home. Even if you only stay a little while you have already won.” Virtually what she was saying is what my great-grandmother use to always tell my grandmother. “Nothing beats a failure, but a try.” The operative word is “try”. Without you even attempting to try, you automatically fail. Not only do you have to try, you must also declare that failure is not an option. You must believe that the vision and talent that GOD has placed inside of you is your destiny… Don’t let the grave steal the next best-selling novel, or the next groundbreaking documentary, or the next Time Magazine’s invention of the year…. So get up, start work on the vision, and get in position. Delivery time has arrived!
