Matthew1:1: The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Meeting Jesus means meeting the final, eternal king of life. Jesus is the son of David, the favored king of Israel. David received the promise of a kingdom without end. Jesus is the last king in the line. Jesus is the king that never loses the throne.
Meeting Jesus starts with embracing faith. Faith gives substance to life. Faith brings to reality our dreams. Jesus is the son of Abraham, the father of faith. No more important aspect could begin a journey with Him.
ACT! Get busy turning over a dream to Jesus. Take hold of the faith of Abraham and submit the request to the King of Kings.
PRAY! Holy Father, Jesus gave me the heritage of David and Abraham. Jesus gave me connection to great faith and authority. I submit my dreams to His ability to see it come to pass.

Hello,
What is so wonderful in your life that makes you chipper? And why do you think the same will work for someone different?
Usually I don't think of myself as chipper. There are plenty of hard moments and tough times every day. But, there is a certain rebound in my life, a continual hope, and a comeback power for which I am grateful. It has not always been that way. Many years have been spent of a purposeful and long journey to build and sustain hope. There was a start, but it has been a walk. This particular piece was written in 2001, it helps to read it back and remind myself when times are tough.
Over the last 30 years, I've seen the same hope work for thousands of others, one at a time.
