My First Love Letter: Greatness Within

Wednesday, January 22, 2014


I love you. I love you. I love you. 

Couldn’t tell you enough. 

And I wish you were next to me.

Time is much more valuable than we thought. Kind of take time for granted, like we have more than we do. But there’s not much at all. Every minute is a minute to be thankful for, a minute to use wisely, a minute to be productive with. Every minute is to learn something from to use in the next minute.Every minute is a minute to take a couple steps forward into the future, because it’ll be the future with or without you. The time never stops moving, it never stops ticking. So you better move with it. Not enough time to just sit with nothing to say, or do. Every minute needs to be something of substance. Used to your advantage, since you have it. Because not everyone has it. Can’t lose track of time. And let it pass us by…

I’d rather have done everything I want to do in this life rather than to feel like I didn’t use the time I had wisely, and to my advantage once my time runs out. I watched a teaching and the man said “die empty.” Die with nothing left. Die having used your God given gifts and talents to better humanity, how you should, rather than dying with them.

It's crunch time. It's time to get it, it's time to move forward.

It's about time to know what you want to do and move forward towards it. 

Time to do what you know you got to do, to get where you know you want to be in life,

Do what you got to do to get where you see yourself, get to the status you see yourself having, the clothes you see yourself in. The cars you see yourself driving, the house you see yourself living in. All of it. It's time to move to it. You deserve every bit of your vision. Nothing short of it. Be great.

A friend of mine told me: “Jaina, I just want to be great.”

My response: “Well, be great. You can be great. It’s in you for you to be. If you know that greatness is in you, then you can be great.”

Just apply your greatness to everything, and greatness is sure to come of it. 

God has your back. He wants you to be great.

He has embedded greatness in you. He is in you.

He lives and works through you on purpose.

Because he knows that you are great, he knows you have the potential to be…

You think you come up with those visions of greatness with your own imagination?

No. You were given those visions by God, by the greatness that is on the inside of you.

It’s almost a “look-see” or preview of everything you can have, as another motive to stay on track with God, with life, and continuing to live in such a way that you actually attract more greatness. 

He’ll let you get a glimpse of what you can have...but to actually receive everything he has promised you, you gotta keep him a part of your life. FIRST. 

Living according to planned would actually attract money. You will then meet people, other great people. People that have things you would like to have, and want more of. People with characteristics and traits you'd want to rub off on you. People that have dreams that coincide with yours. And it is easy to foolishly believe that it is all just a coincidence.

They all just came about in this life and/or you both just so happen to come across each other. Just so happen to cross paths. No. Its a part of the plan. With every great move, there is a set up for the next great move that is to be made in order for you to move forward and closer to where you see yourself, and what you see yourself having. via visions. God has a plan. “God is faithful, and his plan is perfect.” God plans to use your gifts, talents, and personality to its best and highest potential, in order for you to possess everything you want. And as a child of God, ALL of your desires are to be met. ALL OF THEM. Needs and wants, MET. He wants that for us, as any father would! All he asks is that you put him first, above all. And stay connected. He has the answers, and the only thing you gotta do to get them is listen to him. There will be tests, but that’s only more room for testimony. There will be more tests as a child of God than as someone against him. or heathens. That’s just how it is; that's just how it works. With every child of God, the devil sees as a threat and will throw what he can to knock you down. He tries to sit you down. He tries to get you sidetracked so you won't have an impact on this world as you could and should. He wants to get you off track so you don’t do what you gotta do to become what you want to become. So you can’t follow through with the plans that your father has for you, which is only a set up for greatness. The devil doesn’t want that. You are a threat, and he wants to enable you. The gifts, the knowledge, the thoughts you think up, it’s all greatness…and the devil knows that if you set out in this world the way God has planned for you...the devil knows it’s all over for him. And he no longer has control over you. That's a word. So, be aware. Well- aware...that you are great. Nothing short of it. You have greatness on the inside of you. It lives inside of you. Everything you set your mind to will be great. Every project you work on will project greatness. Every person you talk to will leave with a burning desire to be great. YOU project and pass along greatness, through and by the grace of God. I pray you carry that grace with you everywhere you go. AMEN.
