And a Bonus takeaway for “2012”

12. Have a theme song for the year. A song that will motivate you or shine light on you when your spirit is broken. Play it after meditating in the morning. Music is definitely Food for the Soul and experiencing your favorite artist on occasion will lift your spirits , soar your dreams and provide you that vitamin C to keep you going. I'll share my Theme song for “2012” on New Years Day via Twitter. “Food for the Soul”

Food for the Soul... The best way to renew your spirit is by feeding it. Start your day each morning by developing a relationship with God's word. Reading daily scripture's to guide you & feed your spirit is the perfect nourishment to get you through any obstacles. Trust! You will be able to block the reverse energy that is thrown your way. Developing a shield of faith will provide you a better direction in following God's footsteps & walking in obedience with him.

We wish you a blessed and safe New Year. Take Into 2012. Honoring your calling feeds and fuels your passion. When you encounter an obstacle or disappointment, please keep in mind. What you may think is a disappointment,  just may end up being your greatest gift from God.

Until next year live FABULOUS...
