A very popular saying is "What God has for you is for you", and I believe it is one of the truest statements EVER. No human, or force can stop the plans of God for your life except guess who----You. Stay connected, continue to prepare and have Faith that your steps are ordered by the Lord.
Let me share a story. Me and my beautiful wife have 4 children and even though we were both fairly athletic and played sports navigating the YOUTH sports scene is challenging. We have been given advice on the "ONLY" way for our kids to make it were to do all sorts of things like personal trainers, change schools, play with certain clubs etc . We did some things that made sense but decided to encourage hard work, believe in the natural ability of our kids and trust God. My daughter Taylor is a senior and she was a 2 year captain in cheerleading, killer catcher in softball and she added powerlifting to the resume. She had received no offers and actually had a horrible set back in softball due to school politics but me and my wife kept trusting in God and we continued to tell her, What God has for you is FOR YOU. Long story short 2 months before the start of college she was announced as a D1 collegiate cheerleader for Wichita State. God ordered her steps, put the right people in her path and they recognized that not only was she a great athlete but a tremendous person and leader.
A could share story after story about just staying prepared as a civil engineer and watching God elevate me when humans did everything they could do to sabotage my promotions, but What God has for you is for you!
Let me share a few key points:
Stay Connected to God
Stay Prepared and Develop yourself even when no one is watching
Treat all people well
Maintain integrity
Be able to decipher the voice of God versus the voice of man
Don't sweat or react when people HATE or try to sabotage you
Always remember God's timing is sometimes not our timing
Maximize every opportunity God allows
No weapon formed against you shall prosper......Now the bible doesn't say that the weapons won't FORM. They will form and sometimes it may seem like you are taking arrows from every side but it does PROMISE the believer that they won't PROSPER.
I do understand I have many followers who don't believe in God, and may say Karma, or Fate or the Universe has aligned in your favor. We'll all I can say is that Leadership Unlocked was birthed in Faith. Yes I utilize science, mentors, global proven leadership concepts but I walk by Faith and not by Sight. That is what makes Leadership Unlocked by JS unique. I have Faith that there is NO need to scheme, plot or play games with your destiny because what GOD has FOR YOU is FOR YOU.
