A Profound Lesson On Living A Trackless Life While Standing At The Source Of The River Nile

It was a privilege to stand at the source of the River Nile as it flows north from Lake Victoria. Although the terrain has been cleared, since Speke and his companions explored around 1859, it is not difficult to imagine the arduous conditions these men faced. There is an account of explorers hacking their way through the jungle in the heat and humidity of Uganda. A white man, lost in this trackless jungle, asked a native if he could show him the way. The team trudged on through the dense forest and thick undergrowth, apparently getting nowhere, and the white man, doubting the abilities of his native guide, asked, "Is this really the way?" The answer came. "There is no way. I am the way."

Am I a Messenger? A Story About Faith and Courage

My very own personal story of struggles and strife has taught me that it takes great courage, boldness and unwavering faith to face our constant fears, doubts, worries and frustrations in order to free ourselves of our self-imposed limitations and to start building a much happier, more peaceful and abundant life. Too many people are living from a place of fear and resentment, leaving practically no room for joy, love and abundance to flow through them. I'm committed to inspiring, motivating, empowering and awakening people to discover their inner strengths and truths so they can deliberately create and receive more of what they want out of life. I am currently taking part in an extraordinary life-transforming project that is specifically designed to impact people's lives and inspire change. I'm inviting you to join me today in this amazing "awakening" journey! So, am I a Messenger? Find out for yourself...
