Proverbs 20:1, “Wine produces mockers; alcohol leads to brawls. Â Those led astray by drink cannot be wise.” (NLT) I can relate… If you can’t relate try replacing the word “drink” with whatever is leading you “astray” today. Â In other words what is causing you to take your eyes off Jesus and place your eyes on…

“WINNING”
Hey everyone, This is Jay out on my EagleLaunch “cloud” and I just wanted to let you know from time to time I go into a creative lull. Â I am presently in one of those lulls and it happens. Â There are some things “brewing” as I will be writing a blog about dreams, 24 hours,…
Attach a plan to your “Yes or No”
Proverbs 13:4, “The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.” Â (NKJV) (This is a continuation of “Yes or No”) A phrase I often say to myself is “the only thing separating success from failure is a plan reduced to writing.” Although having my…
Yes or No?
Matthew 5:37, “But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’, and your ‘No’, ‘No.’ Â For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.” (NKJV) I can remember many years ago sitting in my group therapy session during the early parts of my treatment center stay and the counselor asked us how we felt. Â The decade…
Competing for the Spirit
Galatians 5:22, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” I facilitated a business course last week and what a blessing it is to be able to interact with people who are both creative and driven to success. Â Whenever I teach this course at some point…
First Who, then What, then Why??
In his book “Good to Great” Jim Collins stresses the importance of getting the right people on the bus and sitting in the right seats of the bus whenever you are building an organization or a team of any type. Â He coined the phrase “first who, then what.” Â In other words before you decide where…
The God Card
Ephesians 2:8-9, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God–not by works, so that no one can boast.” Wow I just returned from a quick “power shop.”  I needed a couple of belts a sweater, some gloves (for my freezing cold Triathlon…
Press On
Philippians 3:13, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead.” (NKJV) I’ve pretty much resolved myself to the fact that anything that causes me to be anxious or to worry is of the devil….
Process of Elimination
Ezekiel 36:26-27, “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. I will place my Spirit within you…” I ran across this scripture the other day and reflected on how much my heart has softened over the…
The Ultimate Lifter Upper
For the past few days I have had many blog topics come to me but I couldn’t blog them due to technical difficulties with my blog engine.  I don’t believe in copying and pasting my blogs for a later date.  I like for them to be fresh with very little editing (I’m sure you  all…
