If you like good Gospel music, this is a welcomed change for your ears. Listen and enjoy the Taste of Tradition where the Message is in the Music, with Ps. Tibbs!
By definition, to commit is to roll. This Latin word implies continuous movement. What does commitment mean to you? Does it change with your feelings? Do you roll this way one day, and that way tomorrow? Perhaps slowing your roll is in order.
Commitment is a promise to make an effort over a sustained period of time, regardless of your feelings. It's not the same as dedication, which involves providing more intense focus and effort in a short amount of time. Commitment is about staying true to your word and following through with whatever you said you would do, even if it is hard.
It's not easy. It involves making a conscious decision to keep going and staying on track. Commitment is an essential part of any successful endeavor, whether it be in business, relationships or personal development. Without commitment, nothing would ever get done! So take the time to think about what you really want out of life and make sure that you are willing to stay faithful.
Seed-Enomics Pt. 6
Spiritual things need not be spooky. There is in fact an invisible part of who you are, and there is no need to run from the very thing that makes up significant parts of your being.
Regardless of where you land on the spiritual awareness scale, please be at ease as this Podcast focuses on the more practical aspects of this realm. Consider that the material existence is measurable in labs. Yet, your emotions cannot. Are emotions any less real? Of course not.
Suffice it to say, spiritual things cannot be measured in a lab, and yet they too are real. Your purpose is spiritual. Your motives are spiritual. Your hopes and dreams are all spiritual too, and they all escape even the most advanced lab measurements.
We address the behind the curtain parts of the human existence, and help you maximize the most precious commodity we all share, time. Let's grow together!
Seed-Enomics Pt. 6
What does the Bible have to say about the money? Many struggle over the subject, but in fact there are more money scriptures than scriptures on faith! Did you know that? But why? Perhaps it's because faith is more powerful than money. Hence, it takes less faith to get money. Furthermore, the darkness does not want the secret to get out.
There is a better way to live and the Kingdom of God provides insight into how this works. You don't have to be a religious giant, nor be a scholar. God's methods regarding money are in plain sight.
Learn. Grow. Enjoy.
Seed-Enomics Pt. 6
Sometimes people who appear bold, strong and well put together, are often more fragile than strong. To move beyond this requires a mental reconing within the soul with the expectation that the process will bring balance to the thinking and build towards a leveled up reality.
Yes, it's true that appearances can be deceiving and people who seem confident on the outside can be struggling on the inside. Mental reconfiguration through self-reflection, therapy, and positive self-talk can help one to develop a more balanced perspective and build inner strength. It's important to remember that everyone has their own challenges and insecurities, and it's okay to seek support in overcoming them.
One way to grow beyond fragility is to devote time to meaningful training and development. The resource below can assist by Maximizing time to move you in the right direction. Click below.

More Fragile than Strong
What would you spend your time doing if you could? Who would you spend more time with? Who would you spend less time with? What would you do more of, if you could get your time back? What would you do less of?
I think of this as I await the faithful and successful outcome of our youngest daughter's brain surgery results. God will prevail.
My, my, my! We could be here all day. The truth is, we can't get it back, but we can sure use it better, starting now.
This small guide could make the biggest difference in your life for years to come, once you know how to Maximize your Time.

Let's not waste another minute.
When people mix up religion with relationship, there is no wonder God gets lost in the swamp of bad opinions. God is love. He loves you. He loves everyone, and he gets no pleasure from the demise of his crowning achievement - the creation of mankind.
So why do bad things happen to good people then, if God is love? There are 3 parts to this subject which is both simple and complicated.
1 God intervenes to the degree that people allow him., because he gave authority to mankind. With that authority man has done both good and evil. We are all witnessing of what happens when people with power disregard God. His plans become second while their plans are 1st. As secular ideas about morality, rights, and humanity become more mainstream, it does so at the expense of the relationship God provides us. The mehem is not because of God but because man excludes God.
2. God intervenes as the sovereign ruler of the Universe. This means he can do what he wants. Yet there are laws he established that work perpetually. For example, gravity, lift, sowing and reaping all perpetually work in their existence. These are signs of God's fingerprint. And while perfection can be found within these laws, the intervention of mankind minimally affects these areas because they function without man's authority. This is true of everything mentioned above except for the laws of sowing and reaping. For example, when a man sows discord, harmony is harmed. Yet, when goodness is sown, gladness is reaped. The law of sowing and reaping is a sovereign expression of God's design, yet, man can misuse God's perfection by sowing error. This happens because man lacks the understanding of purpose. Within his sovereignty, God can intervene as he wills. This is where people blame God because they fail to observe #1 - God intervenes to the degree that people allow him., because he gave authority to mankind.
3. God intervenes with grace to assist the innocent. Without grace sin as a menace to society would be totally out of control. Yes, bad things exist as a part of the fall of mankind, but on scale, grace prevails far more than evil. Think about the number of times you have driven from one place to another without an accident? Do the safe returns outnumber the breakdowns and crashes? Consider how many meals you have eaten without going hungry? Have you thought about how much safety has prevailed over treachery? Against the backdrop of your lifetime, you have in all likelihood, been more on the side of God's grace, than disrupted by man's menacing ways.
So, when you come to God, do so in your current state. He can handle your messiest mess! Do not even try to clean up first. In fact, God cannot accept your version of cleanliness. Why? Because you will miss the stuff in the corners of your life. God cleans thoroughly including thoughts, intentions and actions. Everything must be cleaned so that he can wrap you in his perfection without you feeling guilty of a past he has forgiven.

Reason # 5 explores the notion that You’re too proudThe topics that support this way of thinking starts with Inflated expectations. This does not mean you should lower your standards. This means you should clarify your definition of who you are first. The following questions are discussed.

The next 10-minutes discuss how value is placed. Sometimes things that are important to you, may not be the Most important thing. Consider this, if you see the glass 1/2 full & he sees the glass 1/2 empty, aren't you both right? Since both perspectives actually see the same thing, why is it important to make a stand?
When people process in this "All or Nothing" manner, it could be because of being Proud of a Superficial List of things. Superficial things easily fly under the radar & are difficult to detect. When opposed, they surface. The list below is the start of a list of possible superficial things...
i. Dress nice
ii. Look nice
iii. Educated

In this episode, we explore the prospect that You’re Afraid to be married.
The podcast starts with the following question, What have you seen that you don’t want to duplicate? Is there a relationship that you saw that you are running from? Is there a picture that needs to be repositioned? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, it's time to Restart the Tape.
The 2nd - 10 minutes asks the question, Who loses if you get married? If there is someone who is more important to your future than the one you love, fear will enter. It is tough to go forward looking backwards, but there is hope. The hope is found in Giving Yourself Permission to Move Forward. Doing this is a sign of progress and is an act of forgiveness, a key to love and growth.
In the final 10 minutes of the podcast, single ladies are encouraged to review the history they don’t want. Some may find that they have grown without knowing it, that they are stronger than they thought and have somehow stumbled upon that special love secret successful couples partake of regularly.
This episode focuses on the 2nd reason You Are Not Married Yet - You Hold on to the Past
Clearly there could be hundreds of reasons a person is not married yet, but this episode is designed to get you unstuck from the ones that are linked to your past.
Section 1 of this recording focuses on The Problem associated with Misusing Your Memory.
Of all the things a person could think about, why would someone zero in on the past? Instead of lingering in the past, this session encourages listeners to remember the good, today, because If good is ever forgotten, evil will position itself as the constant reminder. Repeat that out loud a few times so that the power of the statement sinks in.
This session also highlights the power of A good memory, which will when exercised, keeps people humble. A good memory tends to keep people balanced.
Section 2 focuses on Reconstructing Relationships. This involves the best ways to view the past. The session provides two illustrations to help make the process easy. It's incredible to see how the past can be released with an imaginary car ride or washed away using a imaginary water hose as an example.
In the 3rd and final section of this recording the letter "R" is introduced . Letting go of the past is helped by the following:
i. Recognition
ii. Repentance
iii. Renunciation
This powerful combination of R's releases the must stubborn of past stains and works to relieve people of yet another reason, they are not married yet.
Have you considered that one of the reasons you are not married yet is because It’s not time. A wise man once wrote, there is a time and a season for everything under the sun... and that includes a time for you to **get married. And if it's not time yet, there are some things you could be working on.
Maturity** is an important part of marriage preparation. Dr. Edwin Louise Cole wrote that maturity does not come with age but with the acceptance of responsibility. Before saying I Do, maturity must exist in a strong way. So, this podcast focuses on maturity in 3 areas.
- Maturity of the Soul
- Financial Maturity
- Emotional Maturity
In the Maturity of the Soul section, we discuss how the mind works, which includes a discussion about the process of thinking. It's not a deep dive, but it provides necessary tips you can start using today. In another section, we explore how the eyes connect with vision. Put plainly, we help you probe internally to see how you see the world and your role in it? The final part of this section checks your taste buds, not the ones in your mouth, the kind that determines if your 'will' will engage long enough to see if maturity tastes good enough to keep chewing on it.
Section 2 addresses Financial Literacy as part of preparing for marriage. This type of Maturity checks your awareness to see if "Getting it Now" overrides your better judgment. Then, we talk about your financial game plan. You don't need to be a guru in the financial arena, but you do want to have an idea of what is important which leads to the last point under Financial Maturity. Before concluding this maturity type, we ask the following question. What does your spending say about you?
The Emotional Maturity (EQ) section is last of the Reasons You Are Not Married Yet, and for good reason. Your Emotional Quotient (EQ), not your Intelligence Quotient (IQ), runs everyones internal processes and is the invisible force behind much of what people do. What sets you off, routinely? Do you ever move out of victimhood if or when you find yourself there? Can you outperform your emotions? These questions connect Emotional Maturity to your behavior and contribute to why it may not be time for you to be married yet.
