“History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new.” 
 
Ecclesiastes 1:9 
 
***************** 
 
There is nothing new under the sun. Whatever it is you are looking to do it has been done and the best thing about success is that it leaves clues. If you desire to go down a certain path follow the bread crumbs of those that came before you. However, to successful traverse the terrain to go from where you are now, to where you want to be you will have to grow. And that growth must be intentional. Choose to be great, choose to love, choose to serve others.

Jay's Motivational Minute: Ecclesiastes 1:9

"Plant your seed in the morning and keep busy all afternoon, for you don’t know if profit will come from one activity or another – or maybe both.” 
 
Ecclesiastes 11:6 
 
***************** 
 
They say your 9a - 5p makes you a living but your 5p - 9p makes you a fortune. What are you doing with the time that you are not at work? Are you working on yourself or are you allowing time to work against you? Don't be lazy with your time, invest it, cultivate it, and watch the fruits that grow from your labor.

Jay's Motivational Minute: Ecclesiastes 11:6

Principle: What you give others, you get back yourself. 
 
*************** 
 
“"The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed." 
 
Proverbs 11:25 
 
*************** 
 
The generous will prosper. Are you consumed with thoughts of only yourself? Or have you managed to make a paradigm shift that most cannot or will not make and focus on serving others first? It is said if you help enough people get what they want, then you will have what you want. Focusing on serving others, focus on helping others, focusing on refreshing others and the things that consume the thoughts of most people will be provided to you as an afterthought. 
 
You want a nice place to live? Develop a solution to help enough people get adequate housing. You want a nice car? Develop a way to help enough people meet their transportation needs. Want a lot of money? Develop a method of empowering enough people to earn a respectable income. 
 
Everything you want is on the other side of service. It is time to figure out how can you be of service today?

“"It is a sin to belittle one's neighbor; 
blessed are those who help the poor." 
Proverbs 14:21 
 
*************** 
 
As the time draws near for Christmas and we are focused on getting our last minute gifts. Let us remember in who's example we try and emulate. Let us remember that Love is the greatest commandment. Let us remember that those who are the most in need of love are those who we frequently overlook. 
 
I encourage you to this season to buy an extra gift to give to someone who would normally not receive one. It is the smallest things that make the biggest difference. Let us make sure that we do not belittle our neighbor but instead show them Love.

“Putting confidence in an unreliable person in times of trouble is like chewing with a broken tooth or walking on a lame foot" 
‭‭- Proverbs‬ ‭26:4 
 
*************** 
 
Have we learned from our first encounter who a person is? If they are reliable or not? If they are dependable or not? If they are trustworthy or not? If you have a broken tooth you wouldn't dare of eating an apple because you can't depend on that tooth to hold up under the pressure. So why would we depend on a person that has shown themselves to be unreliable to hold up under the pressures of life? 
 
I encourage you to take an inventory of those you have in your life. Are they reliable, dependable, trustworthy? If not, are you still putting confidence in them in your time of need? It is time to stop chewing on a broken tooth.

“Don't answer the foolish arguments of fools, or you will become as foolish as they are."" 
‭‭- Proverbs‬ ‭26:4

We may differ on what we believe, we may differ on what we value, we may differ on what we find important however, there is a difference between having a discussion with someone who sees things differently or a foolish argument with someone who rejects truth and facts. 
 
Engaging with those who are the latter will only serve to confuse or confound us, to move us further away from truth and our purpose. Be mindful of who you engage with, are they helping you grow or are they tearing you down.

When did a wife become a nuisance? When did she become the "old ball and chain"? There was once a time when she was more precious than rubies however, we have gotten away from treating her that way. 
 
This week I encourage you to treat your wife as the treasure that she is. Whether sending flowers to her job just because, or writing her a letter with a hidden note in invisible ink or serving her breakfast in bed. Be thankful for the favor the Lord has shown and act accordingly.
