Believe to Receive

“You must believe before you can receive” Chris Oldcorn

Each of us has a special power inside that is waiting to be let out.  It is creative, empowering, and filled with unlimited potential.  Changing the way you think about your situations, talents, abilities, and relationships is just the beginning of your best year yet!  The source that we all originate from has empowered you with unlimited ability to live a greater life than those who came before you.

A great example of this power is from the biblical story of Abraham and Sarah.  Abraham came home one day and told Sarah that they were going to have a baby.  Both of them were past their prime baby years.  They were approximately one hundred years old and this was before any medical technology that could assist them in getting Sarah pregnant.  They had to do it the natural way.  Sarah did not believe she could become pregnant so she sends Abraham to sleep with one of their maids and have a baby.  They raised that child for twenty years while Abraham kept trying to make Sarah believe she could have a child.  Eventually, Sarah began to believe that it was possible at the ripe young age of one hundred and twenty to have her first child.

Maybe you have spent your whole life being told that you would never amount to anything, you are as dumb as a rock, or no one will want to marry you because you are ugly.  People around you have made you buy into a negative self-image.  Today is the day that you will walk away from that negative self-image and believe that you are special.  Throw away the coat of negativity and step into your new future filled with unlimited potential.

Your New Year’s resolution should be to perform at a higher level in every area of your life.  Change your thinking and hope for a better future in the coming year.  No one will believe in you until you believe in yourself.  It is not being conceited but having a positive self-image and a healthy feeling of self-worth.  You get what you expect whether you like it or not.  You cannot receive if you do not believe.

This is the year you become financially secure.  The love of your life will cross paths with you.  The unlimited potential will rise up and match you with the career you have been waiting for your whole life.
