Stepping Into Greatness!

I was reading a book written by Dr. Mark Chironna tittle "Stepping into greatness" that talk about finding the flow of your intended destiny and I wrote some inserts of the book in my blog. In the pursuit of your life's purpose, there will strategically occur a defining moment in the form of a refining crisis setting you free from a confining limitation, thus empowering you to step into greatness! A crisis is a gift that doesn't look like a gift. The greatest thing is, at any moment, to be willing to give up who we are in order to become all that we can become. The question is. Do we have the courage to find out what our life really can be? If you are already walking on thing ice, why not dance?

What are you willing to risk for the dance of destiny? To "trust the process" that takes place between the crisis and the greatness is to relax in the arms of God. Some things have to be believed to be seen. We are either going to be driven by our unmet needs or led by the Spirit. God can not only provide assistance for what is chasing us from our past, but He can also provide direction and guidance for what awaits us in our future. Either way, God has us covered. Stepping into greatness requires that we first reconcile our personal history so that it no longer hinders access to our destiny. A crisis is a defining moment in our life.

Regret can be a thief that steals our present moment by locking us into past disappointments. It sabotages our hope for moving into the future. Carrying unnecessary burdens can prevent us from experiencing all the  things that God has in store for us. The "hallway" is the place where God takes us through the process of revealing and healing our history. It is the place where our history becomes the stepping stone to our destiny, not the derailer and disqualifer of our destiny. To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, to make you like everybody else is to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight... but never stop fighting! Destiny is not discovered- it's uncovered. Most of us are so busy doing what we have to do, that we do not think about what we really want to do. When one door closes, another door opens; but we often look so longingly and so regretfully upon the door that closed that we fail see the one that has opened for us.
