the luxury and not just the necessity.

God started the last few weeks instructing me to sow into specific lives seeds of luxury and not just like meeting the necessity. At first I didn’t understand it. I was like man shouldn’t I be paying their light bill or something? However, I really felt God leading me to do things like take them to a nice dinner, take girls to get manicures, etc. When I asked, the Lord said I will still meet their needs, but they need to know they are meant to have more than just electricity and ramen.
We are meant for excess. We are meant for success. We are meant for greatness. God created us to give large and live large.

On Saturday I was so excited because I saw the beginning of the return of all those seeds. I was blessed with an Aretha Franklin concert ticket and it was one of the greatest moments in my life. Not only because she is a living legend, not only because she is one of my favorites, but God was showing me too that not only are my bills and things taken care of, but he wants to remind me that I am created to have and ENJOY life.
