#TheKey

Have you ever wondered... what is the key to success?  Is it landing a "Good Government Job"... making six figures...have you arrived when you are given a view of the city from the office?  Is the key to success having a position in which you are the leader of the division, group, team, office, etc?  Have you reached success when others look to you for all of the answers as you sit on your Blackberry or iPhone and answer emails daily? Is it being able to review your resume to find a million bullet points denoting your successes, contributions and experiences? Is it checking your bank statement, reassuring yourself with a smile that you've got your family covered? Is the key to success finding that awesome mentor in the workplace who has vowed to get you to where you've got to go so that they may go ahead and retire, and leave it all to you?


Is it seeing your name in lights?  Seeing your name in print? Seeing your name on a product? Hearing your name over the airwaves/radio waves, seeing yourself on the big screen/ small screen, on a national television program or even on a news story?


Some may agree that all of thee above spell out success.


My question to you is, how do YOU spell success?  As you ponder on today or on this week the things that you have done in life, or the things that you are cooking up now to share with the world...how does your current measure of success add up to what you have told yourself before you began... and is it in line with what God has planned?  Remember God has the key.


I love this passage from Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.


*Note to self: If God be for me, who can be against me? He holds the key to my #success.
