Thumbs up

In the age of discovery, way back in the day, mapmakers sketched dragons on maps as a sign to sailors to warn them. The dragons symbolized unknown territory. Some sailors took this symbol on the map literally and were afraid to take a risk and go into virgin territory. This is a powerful
metaphor for us today. Many of us allow the dragons in our minds to keep us from growing. Life is full of change and opportunities. You will either resent, resist or rely on your faith and yourself to cope with new changes in your life. Only wet babies like to be changed. As an adult, you're better off when you can learn to adjust to change. Risk and unknown variables come with the pursuit for success. Stop listening to fear and start listening to your faith. Become positive and proactive. Set yourself up to win. Slay your inner dragons and believe that you are a conqueror. God will not put more on you than you can handle.

Stay in the Light,
