Life is a journey for which none of us was granted the opportunity to choose our starting point. The way we travel this journey can either lead us closer to God or farther away from Him. Unlike the consultation we receive from a travel agent when we choose our vacation destinations, on life's journey, we aren't consulted. In fact the only thing we can expect is the unexpected. Consequently, life itself can become paralyzing, full of things that try to push us down.

Maybe you feel as though you've failed and haven't been forgiven for past failures or sins.  Maybe you have faith to trust God, but you feel as though God has forgotten about you in the midst of your troubles. Maybe you got some bad news concerning your health, or maybe a relationship didn't work out. But if you're going to see God's best, you have to have a "bounce-back" mentality. That means when you get knocked down, you don't stay down.  You get back up again.  You don't get bitter, you get better. What looks like rubbish and ruins in your life will be restored, repaired, and rebuilt to bring forth reformation. The sufferings will bring about a blessing for those that stand and having done all stand. God is revealing the glory through our suffering.  God is establishing us in the midst of what we're going through.  In the end, it will be worth it!

Know that you are pregnant with purpose and pregnant with greatness.  Allow the baby to be born.  Don't try to abort it!  I encourage you today to allow the vision to be birthed. God has breathed life into it and it is leaping inside of you reminding you daily that you must not grow weary in well doing: for in due season you shall reap if you faint not. There is no challenge too difficult, no obstacle too high, no sickness, no disappointment, no person, nothing that can keep you from your God-given destiny. If you stay in faith and keep a good attitude, you will rise again. God will turn those stumbling blocks into stepping stones, and you'll move forward into the victory He has in store for you!

Let the weak say that I am strong. Let the poor say that I am rich!  I am rich in Jesus name!  Not just rich in monies, but rich in power, rich in the anointing, rich in the glory, rich in health, rich in grace, rich in mercy!  I am living in my wealthy place!  I am walking in the wealth of the Lord! Smile for the love of Jesus is greater than any trial or tribulation that you may be going through. We have walked into a new season spiritually.  A season of blessings!  Proclaim and take dominion over everything that God has promised. Render the enemy powerless over everything in your life. 

Jesus loves you and he makes no mistakes. You are not a mistake. You were created in the image of God.  God is the solution to everything. We must learn to hold on. We must learn to trust God.  We must learn to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!

Insurance is simply preparation for the direct and indirect expenses of a future event. That is why many parents view taking out a child life insurance policy as too morbid to consider. However, there are several reasons why the subject of child life insurance should not be considered taboo in your family. Parents buy juvenile life insurance, at least in part, to be prepared for the unthinkable.

Taking out life insurance cover children is often overlooked. The death of a child will be devastating for a family; if the child is covered by a policy then the payout can cover some of the costs, funeral fees and medical bills.

When are some of the benefits of being prepared for tomorrow:

- The best time to start life insurance for your children is when  they are young and in good health. A serious illness or injury could make insurance very expensive or even unavailable in the future.

- This ensures insurance can be continued through adulthood even if difficult medical conditions have developed.

What are some of your options? There are two types of life insurance. 

- The cheapest option is term insurance which just pays out on death, the more costly is called whole life coverage and this may include a savings plan element. Parents can anticipate a whole host of expenses as children become adults: whether it is college costs, the first car, marriage and children of their own.

- The benefits of having life insurance for children extends beyond childhood, families with young children tend to be financially stretched and may find it most difficult to cover sudden additional expenses associated with the death of a child. Most children do not die so there may be the option to cash in on some of the money paid to a whole life plan. Young adults will be able to renew their life insurance, even if they have developed diseases which are almost uninsurable.

One of the main reasons why getting life insurance for children is a good decision is one that families often fail to accept - the possible death of a child. A child's death can be emotionally devastating, both to the parents and to the remaining children. It can be financially devastating too. These are few of the benefits associated with purchasing life insurance for young kids.
