Hi Everyone!
I know we are all looking forward to the 4th of July weekend, those of us who live in the U.S. As for me, I have a fun-filled week ahead with my husband’s family coming into town from New Jersey, so we are all excited to spend some family time.
I know we are all looking forward to the 4th of July weekend, those of us who live in the U.S. As for me, I have a fun-filled week ahead with my husband’s family coming into town from New Jersey, so we are all excited to spend some family time.
Before, we get our party hats on and begin to celebrate
with fireworks; I wanted to share this with you all. I really wanted to share
my heart with everyone. This is something that I have already shared on my social networks such as Facebook,
Twitter and Instagram and I also wanted to share it on my blog so everyone to read it.
I am a firm believer of empowering and encouraging others
to reach their top potential. I’d like to be known for inspiring, encouraging
and blessing others. I want to constantly, not only motivate myself but motivate others
as well. I want everyone to excel in their individual journeys, knowing that they too can push past any limitations
that may be of hindering. With
that being said, sometimes we need a little help and God places people in our
paths everyday with the purpose to help us. There
will be times where you will need help but there will also be times where you will be that source of help for others.
As youth pastors, my husband and I constantly are working
with the younger generation, we realize that they are the next generation and
it is our responsibility to lead them, teach them, empower them, motivate them
and mentor them. If they don’t get it from us, who will they get it from?
It’s
everyone’s responsibility to listen and help these kids who are rising up. You do
not have to be a youth pastor to do so, everyone is a leader in their own
individual way. You can make a difference in someone’s life simply by caring
and genuinely helping them excel in whatever area you are good at. Help them
become better.
This is what I
shared earlier on social media and my hope is that you too become encouraged
and motivated to encourage and motivate someone who may need your help. It’s
not about us, it’s about Jesus and sharing the gifts He has deposited in
us-with others! The more you release, the more you receive.
Leaders:
Invest your time
and resources into the next generation. They will remember! That goes for
mentorship, leadership, teaching, preaching, music, worship, arts and even
business. Whatever gifts you have been given, share the wealth of knowledge to
others. Encourage them to be better and do better than you. Ouch! Why? Because
you're standing today but guess what? Tomorrow you will be sitting down and
they will be standing up, leading just like we are today. How great will it be
to leave a legacy of multiplication?! You multiplied yourself unto others. You
were not afraid to teach what someone else taught you and have others learn
what one day you learned. Take someone under your wing and mentor them to be
better than you; because my friends, that is the sign of a true leader: one
that can look back and say, I mentored them and they became better than me! Let’s
be a generation of sharing, one who spreads the wealth of knowledge. Let's
empower the generation that is rising!
Be Encouraged, Be Blessed!
Landy Perez-Feliciano ♥
