Preparing


Preparing.

What does it really mean?

To get ready? To put into proper condition?

Exactly.

Preparing.

What does it really mean?

To me, it's readiness. It's readiness for every situation that comes my way. Whether it be spiritually, emtionally, or physically.

Preparing.

What does it really mean?

To go against all odds, no matter what everyone says.

Preparing.

What does it really mean?

To say that I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me.

Preparing.

What does it really mean?

To have plans A, B, C  through G.

To have people behind me, every step of the way. Even if those people be "me, myself, and I."

To always have that goal right in the back of yours eyes.

To have tunnel vision of the goals that lye right down the pathway-ahead!

To "See no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil".

To say Ima ride or die, and keep going toward my expected end.

To fall down, but to get back up again.

To cry when it's time to cry.

To boast in joy, when it's time to boast.

To skip pebbles across to river.

To say "I will make it, no matter how long it takes".

To slide on the ice, run through the water, flip through the snow, jump through the hills, and laugh through every tribulation.

Why?

Because of preparing.

Got you there.

Got me there.

Preparation.
