Habbakuk 3:19; Mark 11:24
“The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights… Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.”

To lose your life is to find it, to hold on is to lose it. We are all here on this earth to learn, to fail, to persevere and ultimately rise to the purpose we were made for, nothing more or less. But who defines what we’re made for except for the voice in your heart and God above to define your true gifts to present to the world? This is the battle that becomes the sensation of losing yourself in that we lose the identity the world tried to create for us and ultimately embracing the true form we were meant to embody, contrary to the patterns of this earth. It’s no secret that weird people make the money and find success, for the simple reason of finding the courage to embrace who they are in all the wisdom of failure and knowing what steps to take in the best form possible. At first we all start that journey looking like a fool while we struggle, the world will laugh and say “I told you so” as you keep falling like a child learning to walk, and yet we keep wiping our tears away and persevering to get back up and try again. Eventually, that child walks, and one day learns to run. I have personally felt the fear, the terror, the overwhelming sensation of teaching yourself to trust in your own intuition and ignoring the markers of what “reality” is telling you to accept. This world is a mirror of ourselves. If we are surrounded by people who want us to fail and we choose to let it hurt us, it is our own choice to let it be so, but it’s also our choice to ignore all of it as if it’s not even there and to chase the goals we set with such certainty as if they’ve already manifested. If I told you that you were going to be successful starting tomorrow if you just did this and that today, would you actually do it? You’d be surprised when I tell you that many would not. The reason is because of accepted reality. The life we have is the one we chose, for all the struggle, the heartache, the fear, even the triumph and successes, it’s all on us. In the same way, we can empower ourselves to learn a new paradigm of existence in one simple truth: We deserve to be happy. You deserve to be happy, to have success, to have fulfillment and satisfaction. You can do it. You can be more than you ever thought you could be. Such courage to claim thoughts like these can be terrifying, because all our lives we are taught to be “realistic” within the boundaries we were taught ever since school, to never go outside the lines and to cap your expectations. But the point of imagination is to dream so big that it would even scare you, and if you can see, it can be so. Without vision, all of mankind would perish, and our very economy and the status quo is driven by a select few who decided that vision. However, the world was made by people no smarter than you, and therefore you can change it if you claim the courage to stand firm even if the whole world would watch and laugh. We are the heroes of our own stories, and fear is what tells us to hide our capes and to put on disguises, because if they ever saw who we really were, how would they ever understand? But it’s that exact courage of being able to fly that gives permission for others to do the same. The world is full of people who never made the first step and have regretted it all their lives, so therefore the purpose of a hero is not to serve themselves, but because the world is looking for the permission of others doing the very same thing and not to be alone in this revolution. I’m not going to lie to you however, it hurts. The path less traveled is one full of loneliness and misunderstandings, embarrassment and betrayal, thus brings the passage of “losing your life to find it”. Even Jesus said that He did not come to unite us, but to bring a sword, for those who love their family more than their calling cannot follow. It’s because choosing the right thing is to wake up and consciously evaluate the world as it is, and desiring to change it. And for any man trained to be safe in such an established system, they will unconsciously fight to protect it and yet don’t even know what they’re fighting for, much less who they are. Therefore as they did to Jesus, they will hate those who speak the truth, for it threatens the kingdom they hide themselves in. A hero stands firm faithfully and patiently even in the face of such resistance, certain of the end goal and being courageous, proud, faithful, and even loving in the face of criticism and pain, because the vision they would hold is one of love not just for themselves, but the world to also have the ability to see possibility as you do. Happiness is, frankly, a revolutionary idea. What if your dreams could come true? What if this life was a lie and we were never meant to be given permission to fly, we just do it? We are faithfully and wonderfully made, meant for the highest goals and most miraculous possibilities, and the only difference between adults and children is that adults lost the ability to dream big and were eventually convinced they could never do it. Winners say “yes”, losers say “no”. Yes to your dreams, yes to happiness, yes to achievement, yes to all the abundance of this earth, yes to a lasting legacy. Have courage and be of good faith, for to chase our dreams and achieve them would give others permission to do the same. Be a hero for all the world to see and do what’s right not just for them, but for yourself. Trust in our gifts and know that we are mighty in our own ways, unlike the world has ever before, and chase it with all the certainty as if it’s our birthright. And most of all, pray and let God do the rest, for surely destiny is guided by His hand. We can have happiness, it is simply found in your gift and what we all can achieve through utilizing it to the fullest. Believe, and you will achieve it.

“When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed. Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.” The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. Restore our fortunes, Lord, like streams in the Negev. Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. Those who go out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them.”

Psalm 126

The Inevitability of a Dream

We are the beginning and the end of all things good or bad, pure or evil, light or dark. Everything wrong with the world that we perceive can also create a solution within us, but we also must have the courage to bring such things into existence. The longer it delays the more the need grows, and some spend their entire lives with this longing but instead isolating themselves to unfulfilled destiny until death calls and regrets are all that remain. Life is an illusion and it can change to whatever we decide it must become for better or worse, and this design is purposeful to inspire character in those brave enough to believe in their own power to change it, those just crazy enough or weird enough to see a better way. Many in this life have retreated to be only witnesses to what others would decide they should be but also entombing themselves in pride to believe it was their decision all along, when in fact they never reached far enough inwardly to realize that all of their desires and dreams are attainable if they believe enough to know that it can be created. There is a question of character when one decided that their pride would be sourced from the design that others have created for them, but the essence of creative design is that each one of our destinies are formless, made just for the each of us in ways that no other could understand and yet when it is made into reality, it would make perfect sense. For that same reason it’s also terrifying, because to believe in the unseen also means believing in that which has never been seen before, so much so that even we would be witnesses to our own gifts and never knowing we could accomplish so many great things until they happened. A dream can be a curse and also a blessing. Dreams are often so beautiful that it is an image we can never forget but are so often tragically separated from us the longer time goes on, deciding to not chase and let it rest into what could have been. A blessing however is made when that dream inspires you to become better than who you were and let the it evolve into an unfolding of a grand design meant just for you, but it takes courage to let it be so. This world is a rigid and ignorant one, people who don’t know what the believe or what they want but so certain they do, chasing nothing except their egos to remain steadfast in their own tombs. Dreamers see beyond the pale and see a future that can reap rewards for all, and such belief is what created prosperous times in the hands of those who believed in a greater power invested in them and claimed responsibility for it. God invests vision into us and gives us the choice to be brave enough to claim it. It is a difficult road however because all will reject such things and therefore tests faith to persevere even when isolated and made to look the fool… until it works, and the world calls you a genius. The world was made by people no smarter than us, so it is only a step away from change. Therefore the inevitability of dreams and faith in those dreams is the “what if”, and having just enough perseverance to give it a chance even if it takes years to be so, and never compromising yourself to see it through. It is more than a test of achievement but also the long game of seeing if character is built firmly enough to sustain the storm. So believe in yourself and invest confidence in what is uniquely yours, because no one else sees it but you, believe in it and chase it because this life fades before the blink of an eye. There is nothing more to life except character and perseverance, not to be normal but to be a force of change in a broken world. We can do anything we can set our minds to because faith and prayer changes things, so give it a chance before you die, there’s nothing else to existence except so.

Psalm 66:8-12;16-20

Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard; he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping. For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver. You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs. You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance. Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me. I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer. Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

I’m going to take a moment to talk about miracles. Such things are what many would call the wonder or the magic of life, the unseen beauty of life that shows its face only when its timing is perfect. It’s also the faith in such things that saved my life. There are wonderful things in this life that are only an arms length away to reach, there is a song in all of our hearts that are not random but divinely given to sing our own tune to a silent world. We are the creators, or rather witnesses of a destiny set forth for us since before we were conceived, and God orchestrated a life for us that is only meant for good, and not only good, but in such perfection and overwhelming power in that which the world has never seen before. And that is what is called a miracle. There is nothing more to this life except a grand demonstration of salvation. Obstacles and struggles are utilities of the narrative to be overcome in such a grand way that is almost like a play, good would slay evil and once again remind the world that beautiful things can happen and faith will always make a way even in our darkest circumstances, that light can in fact show us the way if we have just enough faith to take the hand reaching out to you. “A beautiful sound” is the remark that is repeated upon my heart, a sound we can’t quite locate the direction of but giving us just enough direction that ensures we’re on the right path, and the more we listen, the louder it sings a more beautiful sound. That is the Holy Spirit. The one factor that so many Christians miss and some will never reach is the purity of faith. I don’t mean external things such as how often we go to church or how often we tithe or how many good deeds we think we’ve done. I mean pure and absolute faith in the impossible, standing alone in the presence of God and believing in the unbelievable things that would confound the wise, a complete and total surrender in the very existence we are a witness to. The very same faith that Jesus told us to believe in that would give us the power to heal the sick, the blind, to raise the dead back to life and making everything from nothing. Such power is shared to us by the New Testament, “I will tear down this temple and rebuild it in three days.” Believe with all of our heart and pray, believe that such things will always be possible and believe it is already yours (Mark 11:24). Jesus wants us to be lions, to demonstrate such miracles of the Spirit by merely faith and faith alone, belief that whatever we bring to God, He will make so in the best form possible, by the healing of our minds, our spirits, to provide what we need, and ultimately strengthen our faith to be ever more perfect and more effective than ever before. That is why so much pain reaches those who pray for such character, because He BELIEVES in you as you believe in Him. Miracles do not happen randomly, but the beauty of life is revealed when that miracle was woven into so many different events playing on each other that it was almost as if such things were known of since the beginning of time, and the perfection of faith is having those impossible things made to also witness to the world that God is greater. So many in America are taught a kind of belief that we are not worthy of good things or happiness in our lives. That is a lie. Jesus had come to give us life and give us life more abundantly by the Spirit, to not be stripped but to be empowered and justified by faith in the presence of His love, that we would receive the crown of life and be made perfect by His love and His constant desire to see us soar. Make a few mistakes, feel guilty and downtrodden because clearly there’s no way out? Pray about it, and the Spirit will heal you if you have faith strong enough to believe so, He’ll dust you off and show you a purpose for such pain to find teachings in them, and become more than you ever imagined within even a few months. That’s a miracle. Fall down ten times He’ll pick you up twenty, ask for forgiveness a hundred times He’ll forgive you a million. He has never left us and prayer changes things, because in that moment you surrender your control to such beauty in miracles. A beautiful song is what it is, and what Christians must do to truly become perfect is to trust in the impossible beyond all human comprehension, to believe that we share of the same power that Jesus called on from the Spirit, and by Jesus’ authority the Spirit would come unto us and heal. When He told Peter to walk on the water, He only said “Come.” When they asked to be healed, He simply asked “Do you believe.”, that “even with faith as small as a mustard seed, you can tell this mountain to move and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” Pray to God and He will listen, but you must believe, and send the prayer forward like a dove that is sent ahead on your behalf, because that’s exactly what is it. Pray, and release it, and He will hear you. God healed my heart within a matter of three months at such a rate that it can only convict me to believe that greater things are in store. Every good thing must be in the belief that greater things are in store, and He delights in us when He brings joy to our weary souls. We are not meant to crawl or beg, we’re meant to run and soar. Don’t ask for mercy but ask for grace, we’re all deserving of death so asking for mercy is just asking Him not to end our lives, but that’s why He sent His son. So don’t mourn any longer, ask God to give us the desires of our hearts so that we can become greater than who we are now, ask for the beautiful and miraculous things of life that creates music in the greatest fashion possible. As David said in Psalms 22, let all the generations say that surely this was the Lord. That should be all of our prayers. In the gospels, a man asks Jesus to heal his child “if He can”. And Jesus replies “If I can? All things are possible for one who believes.” And the man replies “I do believe, help me to overcome my unbelief!” And that is very same prayer I have prayed, to ask for God to come through in such a way that teaches our very hearts that all things are possible through the Spirit and by the authority of Christ. We are meant for greater things in this life, for surely it is a short time we are here. So therefore, ask God for life more abundantly and live well in His purpose, for surely we would live in perfection with such guidance.

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

It's 2026 guys, crazy that we're already here.
2025 has been very eventful, a lot of change, a lot of growth and a lot of shifts of perspective.
With the beginning of this year it's time to make our dreams come true and there's no excuse except the ones we make for ourselves, and I decide to make my life more than what its been.
By the end of this year my channel will reach millions of followers, I'll have a website and I'll be uploading daily, I'll be able to quit my job and live my best life with y'all, and we're going to let positivity and possibility guide us.
Thank you so much for sticking around, it's been a revolutionary last few months in my life and now I plan to live.

We can all make miracles in our lives with just a little bit of faith.

Forgiveness. Forgiveness of your enemies, forgiveness of friends & family, forgiveness of those who have wronged you. These virtues we are instilled by the most important commandment: To love your neighbor as you would love yourself. But this year there is a new lesson I’ve learned, one that I never came to terms with and always had forsaken: To also learn to forgive oneself.
How many of us are our own worst enemies? How many of us battle with our minds more than the world, as our battle is not an outwardly one but a spiritual one? We are our own worst critics, our own crowd ready to stone us for our errors and our wrongs, as this is the curse of those of us who have rarely had a kind word to lift us up in endless misfortune. This is why kindness changes lives. In a place of darkness, one kind gesture gives the little spark of hope that perhaps there are those who do have faith in us in this dreary world. That spark of hope leads to inward inflection, to measure our hearts and see the severity of our own inflicted lashings, and we start to seek the better parts of ourselves and learning to forgive the others. This skill is something that few people ever come across, those who simply live in misery and also those too blind to ever notice the inward measurements that make them better leaders, leading to arrogance.
There is a splitting road that comes when life comes into focus, when we come face to face with our own mortality and no longer drift in this world, when we’re no longer witnesses, but now players in this game called Life and can now have a direct impact on the course of history. When this choice comes, it leads to one simple truth: To turn back to the life you knew in nothingness, or decide to become a better version of yourself that can find the good in life, and w**d out the darkness and muck that has tainted our souls for so long, to be cleansed in the light of faith and salvation. The first rule is always to forgive each other, but it’s a difficult thing to see yourself and see it for all that it is, good and bad, and realize that you would have never discovered the good if it wasn’t for the darkness that pushed you that direction. We can think that changing the past would lead to a better and quickened future, but if we pull on those strings, you’ll see the unwinding of a perfect tapestry that made you in this very moment. The past, present and future are often said to be folded on top of one another, all culminating in one perfect vision if you let it work on you. For all the good and bad, there is a path being forged that we cannot see yet but it was always there, and therefore time is our most precious resource. Forgiving oneself then means to forgive us of our own missteps and our faults, and realize that we would have never grown if it wasn’t for the calling to change those things. We cannot hold onto the past but use it as an inspiration to see how far we’ve come and keep marching towards a brighter future in the light of renewed visions, and forgiving our faults to give way to life pouring back into our souls, like water from a spring to renew us. Jesus said that “I am the wellspring of life, those who drink will never go thirsty again” (John 4:13), which fulfills my metaphor that life is ready to pour into you and be manifested in you, but you must forgive yourself to let it come in. Do not punish yourself, do not hide from yourself, let it be changed and embrace the goodness of the future to come. There is good and it’s worth fighting for, this is what we were born for and it’s what past generations have invested in us to fulfill as the new generation. Time is now, purpose is being fulfilled, and truth will reveal itself in time for those willing to see it.
But first, let me tell you one small truth: You are perfect just the way you are. Not to mean to remain static and unchanging in that way, but perfect in realizing that it will lead you to the road you were always meant to find, you are human and to find a reason to change is called growth. Imperfection is the perfection of perseverance. You will be made perfect in time, so be repentant and learn to forgive oneself as God has already forgiven you. Life is waiting for us.

Isaiah 58:8-12
Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: “Here am I.
If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.”

The most beautiful things in life come in the simplest forms. As of late, I’ve had to come to terms with a lot of loss in my life and the pain of the past: hatred, loss, isolation, depression, everything that causes endless turmoil and the rotting of the soul, all in the name of controlling this life and trying to stake a claim on my own fate. But the longer I tried to do so, the further my soul and my destiny drifted into nothingness, a void that never would be filled. I felt like if I could muster some sense of control then everything else would fall into place, but many would testify that even in milestones of success, for all the agony and longsuffering we face to reach our goals, reaching those points will feel exactly the same as when we first started. So therefore, the question was never of reaching success to find happiness, but failing to ever find happiness and satisfaction of who we are from the very beginning, and that remains a curse that follows you to your grave. When a man realizes this, it lays him bare to mortality and the smallness of our existence, the insignificance of our “control” and our attempts at achieving godhood, and leaves us vulnerable to the very core of our being: that being Imperfection. Imperfection is the slight and the slander of the human race, we chase after something perfect that we were never meant to find because all it would bring is dreamless solitude in the end. There is no prize for perfection, only an end to pursuit. Our imperfection makes us perfect because it gives us the gift of possibility, of what could be and who we could become, all in the vision of making this world a better place. Perfection demands individuality because you face the competition of an imperfect world. But imperfection and embracing such a notion brings unity and connection in our shared suffering, we can bleed together and cry together and suffer together, which creates moments that create imperfect strength that lead to perfect progress. Therefore the only way forward is not to wrestle in our hatred and apathy, but to let those things go in exchange for the chance we take in love. Love is faith in the future and the potential of who we could be, and it demands investment and trust as the only way forward for us together, to trust our flaws that make us unique and to encourage the soaring of our own souls and vision in a place that is void and lifeless. Children hold this gift to see the world in color and possess that spark of madness, to chase after impossible things in the name of faith, their ancestors and their trust in a higher power that can create miracles. These are the things that make life worth living in moments of darkness, the stories where you don’t want to know the ending to because how can there ever be a happy ending in such dark times? But those are the stories we hold onto the most, for the one chance that perhaps there is some good in this world that pierces the darkness in the end, and the sun shines once more because we decided to fight for it and came out victorious. Thus brings the trust in imperfection, the investment of uncertainty, the embracing of love in chaos. We are meant to soar and sing and dance together, to live together and be together, and thus the stories we tell are the ones we face as one. Take a chance on yourself and don’t be afraid of making mistakes because in the end, the story you’ll tell of relentless perseverance is one worth listening to and to inspire entire generations to follow in the same path. We are all a part of something greater, and it’s faith in what we cannot see that brings wonder and glee when we see that the answer was waiting for us the entire time, waiting for the perfect moment to be revealed as the chorus to a beautiful melody, a song to our hearts, a rendezvous to our mortality and the precious value of our time. This is why imperfection is what makes us perfect: We know not what to do or how to do what we do, but we continue on because we have to believe that there is some greater plan that we are a part of and that there is still some good in the world worth fighting for. That is life, and that is worth living for until the end of all days and the return of our Lord. Believe that there is a plan for you, and don’t be afraid to embarrass yourself, because that’s the part that makes you real. Live this life well.
