I promise you, we'll make you feel right at home. Thanks for tuning in. Thank you again for coming out today.

I like to start with something funny each week. I heard about this pastor and song leader that weren't getting along and begin to spill over into the services.

One Sunday, the pastor spoke on being willing to change. Afterwards, the song leader got up and led the song, I shall not be moved.

The next week he spoke on being a giver and the song leader got up and led Jesus paid it all.

I think the pastor talked about how we have to watch our tongues and not gossip. The song leader got up and led.

I love to tell the story. The pastor got so frustrated he finally resigned. He said Jesus brought me here and Jesus has taken me away.

The song leader then led what a friend we have in Jesus.

Hold up your vibals, say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.

Today I will be taught the Word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert. My heart is receptive. I will never be the same in Jesus' name. God bless you.

I want to talk to you today about blooming where you are planted. Too many people are living negative and discouraged because they don't like where they are.

They don't like their job. The people are hard to get along with. They don't like where they live. That's not where they want to be.

When they get stuck in traffic, they get all upset. If they have to work late, that just sours their day.

There is always something they are fighting against trying to get somewhere else. But I have learned God is more interested in changing me than he is in changing my circumstances.

As long as I am sour because I am not getting my way, discouraged because I am single and I want to be married and upset because the business isn't growing, that's going to keep me right where I am.

If you want to see change, if you want to see God open up new doors, the key is you have to bloom right where you are planted.

You cannot wait till everything gets better before you decide to have a good attitude. You have to be the best that you can be right where you are.
