Given all that you’ve suffered through this year, you deserve an extreme home makeover; one that involves construction on the interior, exterior and landscaping of your physiological house – your spirit, soul and mind. As 2009 draws to a close, leave that old house with its cracks, creaks and leaks. A new dawn breaks just over the 2010 horizon. It’s time to start feeling good again because God’s got some great things in store for you. Get ready to move into your newly expanded home.

Within each of us lies an inner strength, a deep-seated courage, and a “take the bull by the horns” attitude. It’s what makes the ordinary extraordinary. For some, this type of assertiveness is part of their dominant DNA. They display unabashed fearlessness every day. For others, it subconsciously and involuntarily surfaces during those “fight or flight” moments generally when “flight” is not an option. It rises like a phoenix from the proverbial ashes to defend, protect and rescue. Then there are those who make the conscious decision to tap into their assertive selves to do amazing, over the top, “no holds barred” things.

To walk in faith you’ll have to believe in what you can’t immediately experience; expect what you don’t immediately have; envision what isn’t immediately visible to the naked eye; and speak as if your dream has already come true. You must confidently believe and trust and anticipate your success.
