Vote For Yours Truly!

I've never been in a modeling contest. But there is no time like the present. Life is always an adventure if we pay attention and use a lil courage. The next opportunity in your life usually goes something like this...

You get a call from a friend or family member telling you to take advantage of something; and what do you do? Well, most of us end up doing nothing. I most certainly have been guilty of this. But lately, I've been realizing that opportunities come when we least expect it. Well perhaps it’s not when we least expect it but rather, they come in surprise packages that we're not expecting at all.

Let's say you want to become a teacher. You may think it's all important to sign up for a degree program and to dive headfirst into school. However, your very first opportunity may appear when you find yourself talking to a random woman on the bus who is actually an assistant teacher. It’s not clear to you that this is an opportunity because you’ve already made up your mind that your opportunity to become a teacher begins with signing up for a college program. So you don’t even bother to ask her about her experiences teaching or the possible ways to become a teacher at her school. And in the process you miss out on the fact that her district is offer Free Fellowships to teach. Sometimes the opportunity isn’t even as obvious as the prior example which makes it even harder for us to connect the dots.

But I believe that this dilemma is a result of limited vision. We have NO WAY of knowing all of the infinite ways that God is working on our behalf. So what to do? Create a vision, and take advantage of all seeming opportunities that come your way whether you see the connection or not. Therefore, next time opportunity knocks; open the door regardless if the visitor isn't who you are initially expecting to see.

P.S. Check out my next adventure and register to vote, ummm for me of course! :)
