SISTER TO SISTER

Welcome to the inaugural posting of Called to Excellence! This blog is for women, about women, and to women who desire to obtain "next level living TODAY"!

Admittedly, next level looks differently for all of us, but nonetheless, I'm convinced that the Lord's will is that we aim for our God-ordained best, so that we can become everything that He desires for us.

If you are like me, there have been numerous things over your lifetime, that have either derailed your path to next level, or at the very least, slowed it down to a snail-like pace. There have been things that I have bumped my head on (sadly to say) over and over again, until a tender spot helped me to finally see the light! Why are we like that? Why does it sometimes take us so long to "get it"? How is it that we can be so accomplished in some areas, and be totally defeated in others?

I want to attempt to address a myriad of issues that impact us as women. Some pretty....some not so pretty. But all of them being concerns that we can relate to either directly or indirectly. So journey with me as we share, as we cry, and as we encourage one another along the way. As I always like to say, "we are more alike, than we are different"!

I NEED A WORD - Devotional

Philippians 4:8 - "Finally, brethen, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things". (NASB)

Excellence first begins in our minds. Our thought life has the ability to either cause us to move forward or to stay stagnant. But when we start thinking and dwelling on things that make deposits into our spirit and not continual withdrawals, then our mental banks stay full of the things that will propel us to our next level.

What has been "on your mind" recently? Is it lifting you up or pulling you down? My prayer is that you will vow to start thinking on those things that will take you to your Next Level, TODAY!
