Shifts and Ladders

Faith is the connecting link between you and God, and you don't need to see that connection. Just believe in it. Believe in the fact that'll provide reassurance and that your faith will pull you out of any challenge you face in your life.

You can see how your beliefs affect the way you live your lives. A lot of us are walking around with SO much going on in our lives that it is VERY difficult to stay completely focused on our faith. Life is just cluttered with work stress, relationship stress, financial stress, and whatever other stress is inhabiting your life. Which is why I'm offering a free e-book to help you declutter your soul...

You simply cannot have two focuses, you cannot serve God and Money at the same time. One will make the other impossible to focus on, and honestly. I'd rather focus on God than on Money. Let's chat about it.

Listen, you can't have multiple priorities. Don't hold on to the things that are just taking up space and get a quick upgrade that will actually serve you. Like a relationship with God and Yourself. You can experience material pleasures and choose to have material goods, but your priority has to remain true to the one thing that will ALWAYS be there for you.

God doesn't want you to be broke, or suffering or not have anything you need. He wants you to thrive, but often time we pursue those things ABOVE our relationship with God and that's when we begin to truly experience hardship. God above all is the best way to Thrive.

Imma keep it simple with y'all, Jesus fed 500 people with two loafs of bread and a couple of fish. He made an abundance out of nothing using the blessings of God to make enough to feed everybody.   You gotta do something similar in your moments of Lacking and take a break, a blessing and multiply what you have.

Listen, life is hard. life unfortunately will continue to life. It can be rough, but Jesus doesn't provide you with life challenges without the opportunity of redeeming those challenges for something good. Growth, faith, you name it. God doesn't always make it easy for you, but he will always take care of you.

Are you RSVP'ing to that one?

We are like Fishnets, we can only carry so much before we start breaking and we need help dealing with the newfound abundance and what that reveals in us. On this week's episode we're chatting about the situations when that happens and how to manage the backside of blessing

It's time to talk about humility, which means that ironically we need to talk about Pride First. Sit tight during this episode, let's identify why pride can be such an insidious problem for us and make sure you join us next week where we talk about how to achieve humility.

It's real easy to get carried away with life and forget that we need our faith in god to be strong in order to be able to participate in whatever vision he has for us. Here are 3 things that will help you increase your faith.

Doubt is insidious, it can be easy to forget the amount of power you actually hold towards the circumstances life throws at you. But holding strong to your faith, To the faith you have in God, you're able to overcome pretty much anything that gets thrown your way.

Last week we talked about Double mindedness and the causes of it and potentially the effect that it can have on your life.  Today we're talking about how to fix it and how to regain conviction in your goals and gain the blessing of God while doing it.  Let's get into it.

When you are experiencing unstable prayers, or unstable communication, you're probably struggling with something called Double-Mindedness. You're essentially being wishy washy about your goals or what you want and it's affecting your relationship with faith and God. Which makes sense, we're people and our desires and our faith wavers and become unstable. In this episode we'll chat about what it me...

Title says it all. We often prioritize our own goal setting to such a degree that we tend to ignore God's plans for us, when in reality our goals align with whatever God's ultimate plan is for us.   Seeking God's will is a great way to start aligning your goals with God's ultimate plan for you.

Listen, you can do a lot in your life without trusting the Big G. but at the end of the day, you have to let him lead to where you need to go. Trust God and have faith that your life will develop in the way that it needs to while you pursue all of your goals.

Listen, The reason that a lot of people fail at their goals is simply because they don't see them as clearly as they could. You're not envisioning it at the level of definition you need in order to pursue it. I know, I've been there. Let's talk about how to clear our vision through the lens of God and creating something that can let us execute.

We've been gone since November, had to take a look at what we were making and uploading and make some Shifts (see what I did there?). Thank you for the support through the last season of Shifts and Ladders, we're still talking about God, still improving our lives by following his word.  I just relaxed a little.  Hope you have a good time.  Let's chat for a bit in this welcome back episode.

“We don’t rise to the level of our goals, we fall to the level of our systems” – James Clear. A lot of us believe that once you set the goals, you’re good to go, but if you don’t set your systems properly and follow them. You’ll find yourself not making progress sooner than you think.

Discipline is good, it may not always feel like it but I promise. It’s good for you. God knows this too and will often use it to help you grow as a person.

If you put yourself up, you’ll go down. If you put yourself down, you’ll go up.

One of the most dangerous things in life is letting your pride go unchecked. It can and WILL poison your growth if not kept in check. Learn humility and how to identify Pride in your life so that you can fight back against it.

Will be fixed next time!** We briefly talked about how to navigate the changing seasons of life, now we’re discussing what you can do to prepare for those shifts in life.
