I think that I have finally come to the realization of who I am and how I want to live the remainder of my life. I want to be excellent in everything that I do or as close to it as possible.

When I speak of excellence, I’m speaking of making a conscious decision to be the best that I can be in everything that I do.

I thank God for pushing me, to know me. I have to laugh because God has literally pushed me into some situations that have challenged me and forced me out of my comfort zone; Specifically, hosting women conferences, leadership roles and podcasts. Even though the core of me is shy, I have been learning (because of God) how to push that emotion aside dealing with people.

When I started hosting conferences I had no idea what or how to accomplish the task; but God taught me by placing the right person or resources in my path to teach me. And as I began to learn, a compelling feeling of gratefulness came over me, and I was able to stretch my mind and be opened to every challenge God asked of me.

When I experience moments of doubt and concern, I tell myself “be excellent Kim! Be excellent!” And for some reason, in my mind, I stand with my back straight, my head up and I begin to feel confident.

I want to give God 100% of me. I want to represent Him with the excellence that He deserves. Mediocrity is not good enough for my Father.

The Bible tells us in John 2:5, “whatever He says to you, do it.” Charles Stanley in his Life Lessons of the Life Lessons Bible, explains the passage citing, “Jesus’ mother did not understand everything her son said or did, but she understood enough to know that it was always wise to do what He said.”

To me, a woman of excellence is willing to grow into whatever God is Calling her to do and that is my plan.

Sisters what do you feel about being excellent?
