I am proof that your circumstances don't determine your life's outcome; your beliefs about them do. 
 When I stopped believing that my disqualifications and limitations had the power to hold me back from my dreams and decided to believe that God could and would fulfill my purpose, my circumstances began to shift.  Doors of opportunity opened, connections I needed were made, and accomplishments I never thought possible were achieved. 
Be encouraged, my Queens, if you're feeling stuck and frustrated with where you are in life right now. Where you are isn't where you're staying. Your current circumstances don't get to determine how far you go in life-God decides that. Believe that you are the head and not the tail, above only and never beneath, and soon enough that will be your reality.

Proverbs 16:9: We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps. 2021 isn't going to be easy. We haven't yet felt the full impact of the destruction and devastation that 2020 unleashed on us. There's a difficult and challenging road ahead of us as a country. As a result, this new year will require you to step into your next-level faith. This isn't business as usual, Queens. 2021 will make or break many people; make the decision now that it's going to make you. Believe right now that though a thousand fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, it shall not come near you! Believe right now that you will prosper even in a famine. Believe that you were made for such a time as this! Success is going to take more than your belief, though. It's going to take vision and goals. In this podcast episode, I walk you through writing your plan for 2021 and how to release your next-level faith to see it manifest in your life. You are a co-heir with Christ. It’s your time to reign. Learn more about Angela Lucas at: https://themadewithpurpose.co Instagram: @madewithpurposeco

Hebrews 12:2, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

James 1:5, If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
