Notes
===============
Our lives are the sum total of the decisions we have made in the past.
Notes
===============
We can decide NOW to do things differently so that we can have a better LATER.
Notes
===============
God has not called me to make excuses but rather to make a difference.
Scripture
===============
Job 42:12 (NKJV)
---------------
Now the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
Notes
===============
God wants the latter part of your life to be more blessed than the first part.
Scripture
===============
Matthew 25:14-29 (NIV)
---------------
“Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them.
To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey.
The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more.
So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more.
But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.
“After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.
The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have gained five more.’
“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
“The man with two bags of gold also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold; see, I have gained two more.’
“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
“Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.
So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’
“His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed?
Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.
“ ‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags.
For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.

Your life has value because God has blessed you and made a tremendous investment in you through Jesus Christ.

You will not discover God’s purpose and plan for your life apart from being connected with and serving in a local church.
Notes
===============
You will not discover God’s plan for your life apart from buying into God’s purpose for your life.

Here are three words that will help you discover God's purpose for your life:
a. Misery
Notes

b. Motivation
Notes
===============
c. Realization
Notes
===============
Your really bad past does not disqualify you from the potential God has invested in you NOW and what your LATER can be!
Notes
===============
If you don’t let your past die, your past won’t let you live.
