Dear Aggie,

Don’t hurry.  You leave a lot of meat on the bone.  You rob yourself of much joy from each day.  You miss out on life-changing lessons from the stories happening to you.  Enjoy life, Aggie.

Enjoying you,
God

P.S. Take slow walks.  Or sit on a bench and pray for the people who pass you by.  Take breaks.  Breathe.  Sing.  Smell.  Feel.  Touch.  Taste.  I designed life to be lived this way, Aggie.

Dear Aggie,

Don’t try to succeed alone.  It will never work. 

Cheering you on,
God

P.S. The climb to success can only be done by team effort, Aggie.  Who is your dream team?  Start recruiting.  It’s so much happier this way.

Dear Aggie,

Don’t hide.  Go to where the people are.  Build relationships.  Engage.  Serve.  Bless.  Care.  Love.

Be happy,
God

P.S. Aggie, don’t wait for people to go to you.  Walk across the room and give them my love.

Dear Aggie,

What you cannot imagine cannot take place.  You have to learn to imagine again.  It’s more powerful than your intellect.  Imagine your desired future everyday.  And make this imagination your intercession.

To your success,
God

P.S. Sometimes, it’s painful to dream, Aggie.  So many of your dreams have been dashed to the ground.  But you still have to dream.  Never give up.  It’s the only way to fulfill them.

God wrote me a letter today:

Dear Aggie,

When money comes quickly, there is a tendency not to value it.  Money that comes in easy will go away easy too.  So savor all the struggles of earning money.  Money by itself will not make you happy.  But how you earned the money and what you’ll do with the money after you earned it can make you happy.  If you earned it by serving others and if you share your wealth to others—there lies the path to your freedom.

Be wise,
God

P.S. Aggie, I’ve blessed you with all that you need to earn.  Use what I have blessed you with.

Dear Aggie,

Be content with what you have, but never be content with who you are.  When you go about earning money, it isn’t money that you really seek, but the growth of character that you build in you.

Keep growing,
God

P.S. Many do the opposite: They’re content with who they are but very discontented with what they have.  Be different,Aggie.

I received that e-mail yesterday when work has been pouring in and I was up into my head with joy and tempted to spend on a very huge (and rare) sale of a want. But then I realized, how long I have been working for the money – and have not let money work for me. It’s time I do something about it, so I can focus on building “me”. In time, I know, it will come.

All the time I think I am going nowhere is actually going to be a test on my character. I know it is, and I aim to make sure I pass every test with flying colors.
