If your life was a canvas, what will the world's greatest artist paint on it?

Will it be just full of colors or many details displaying who you really are?

Well, believe it or not, you are been framed and displayed everyday for others to see in the museum of life by the world's greatest.

 "I will praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

  your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:14.

Your thumb prints and saliva are only two lines in the sketch and He is still working on you.

GIVE GOD PRAISE.

ACTION REQUIRED

WHAT MATTERS

12/20/2016

Dr. C. Branker

The smallest action is better than the greatest intention.

Some people are always planning to do big things in their lives but never take the time nor give attention to the little things. The need to dream and hope is human, but we just cannot afford to not take the smaller steps.

Every long journey began with a few steps, and the consistency of hoping will be motivated by actions taken towards the goal.

Move forward and push towards your required results, it may be the right time for you now.

DISTRACTIONS

WHAT MATTERS

12/19/2016

Dr. C. Branker.

Life is full of distractions, and distractions are the enemies of fulfilling your purpose.

So many people fall short of their goals by being distracted.

The brightest student can fall prey to this enemy and destroyer, as we have seen this happen over and over again.

Twenty years of operating a private school from grades 2-12, were punctuated with hours, days and weeks trying to get students to refocus and get back on tract after being distracted.

Everyone will experience distractions, but the choice must be made individually on refocusing. 

Remind yourself of your desired goals and listen to the inner voice of reason.

You can only become who you were created to be and what you were created for.

MEDITATION

WHAT MATTERS

12/5/2016

Dr. C. Branker.

Thinking in a positive way, will leave little room for doubting, not letting present trouble determine the outcome.

When we find  truth, we gain courage and the opinion of others does not matter.

Thinking on things that are pure, lovely, honest and good will only strengthen and not make weak.

Meditation is a practice where an individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to realize some benefit or for the mind to simply acknowledge.

Think beyond your troubles, as Christ has given you grace and victory.

PSYCHE

WHAT MATTERS

12/1/2016

Dr. C. Branker

 The Greek root word psyche (soul), pertains to man, who is completely different from any other biological  creatures. 

Therefore, a study of the soul (or spirit) of man  which is known as psychology cannot alleviate his origin. 

In the book of Job, God asked him a series of questions that he could not answer. 

Job was no doubt mesmerized by what he had to endure by the hands of satan.

He was void of understanding, and his thoughts, (soul) was greatly troubled.

Read Job chapter 38.

A good psyche is described in Proverbs 3:5-8 "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
