No Password Necessary!

I had to change my password today. Every 30 days this event occurs. There are rules that you have to follow for changing your password. It has to be a certain length. It has to have at least 7 characters. It cannot be all letters. It must contain 1 number. It cannot be similar in any way to a prior password, etc. Oh, and by the way, don't write it down anywhere!

When you question this practice, it's all about being secure. Security provides safety or a freedom from risk. It lessens the danger of someone being able to break through the walls of your defense. Basically, it is there for your protection. My corporation requires a password in order to protect me and them from tampering by another co-worker or an outside entity. A lot of corporate resources are assigned, both financial and physical, to ensuring that I and the company are safe from intruders and risk.

The password is such an important element in providing technical security that you only get a certain number of chances to remember it and enter it correctly. After your chances expire, you are totally locked out of the system and you must call to have it "reset" so you can once again have access to the system.

AND as it that's not enough, there are certain applications in our system that require a different password to gain access. Even some levels of operation that limit you by your user ID. So just because you get through the first set of "security measures" doesn't mean you have access to everything that's available.

These thoughts caused me to ponder just a moment. No password is necessary in God's kingdom. God never locks us out. He does not have a limit on the number of times you try to gain access to Him. What an awesome thought!

God's kingdom and access into His realm is totally secure. There is no risk of intruders sabatoging His "system". When you're in His "system" you have the freedom to go anywhere and access any level of operation you desire. God's Kingdom is secure! He paid the price one time for all of us forever!!

God will never lock us out no matter how many times we forget some of the steps or measures. God will never prevent us from going to the next level. God is totally transparent and provides all things for all people who seek him and desire more. His Kingdom is limitless and you can reach for the stars and attain the greatest heights. It's all up to you!

I have full access to everything in God's Kingdom 24.7.365!!

Just begin....

I've wanted to have a blog for a long time. What stopped me? The commitment. I would begin to check into it and read other blogs and think how cool it would be to have one of my own. I would envy them the time and the thoughts. I would dream about "the day" that I would have a blog. I'd more often than not stop dreaming and get back to the "real world".

Then this morning I began on that same ol' track of thinking again. I really want to blog. I wish I had the time and could do it. Then reality hit me. I'll never do it. I keep coming here to this point and stop before I ever really commit to creating it. This is a cycle that needs breaking. I'll never accomplish something if I never try, never begin. So, I've begun.

How many things have you wanted to do but never have because of the commitment would be too much? How do you know if you never try?
