It’s easy to be excited when things are going well but when the things get familiar or rough, excuses get plenty.

The story goes about Kathryn Kuhlman soon after she dedicated herself to preach, she fell on ice and fractured her leg. The doctor advised her to be on complete bed rest.

When your purpose in life is larger than your troubles, no excuses will rise.

Pay no attention to the millions of excuses around you because God wants to change millions of destinies through you!

Be obsessed with the bigger picture, the purpose you were created for; then everything will be alright.
