Here Shifu is getting worried by the thought of Tai Lung escaping from prison. He doesn’t see how Tai Lung could escape by sending Zeng to the prison to make sure he doesn’t escape. Of course this is the thing that does make Tai Lung escape. Oogway tells him, ‘Your mind is like this water, my friend, when it is agitated, it becomes difficult to see, but if you allow it to settle, the answer becomes clear.’ Satan agitates us so that we can’t see God as clearly as we normally do. This makes it harder to focus our life around God. Sometimes we just have to stop and take a break, so that our mind can settle so we can see God clearly again and focus our life around him. God bless

Destiny

Let me remind you of that line Oogway said. ‘One often finds his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it.’ Sometimes we do something to avoid being tempted by Satan. If it is of our own doing it may be the very thing that tempts you. Seek God and ask him to lead you away from these temptations. Don’t try to do it yourself. God bless

Remember what I told you last week about me being healed? Have faith and everything is possible. If you need and stories to build that faith ask me or anyone round you. I have had some really amazing, unbelievable things that have happen to me in the last year and a half I can tell you to strength your faith. I also have other stories from other people that have really helped me in faith and can do the same to you. Just believe in him and if it works with his will then it shall be done. God bless

Believing

Shifu says how the peach could not defeat Tai Lung. He was really saying that Po couldn’t defeat him. Oogway told him maybe it could, but if he was willing to guide it, to nurture it, to believe in it. I ask you to find someone older than you and younger than you that you can trust and believe in. Ask the older wiser person to help you along in your walk with God. Chose someone that you know will believe in you. And also help and believe in that younger person and teach them wisdom in Christ. God bless

There are no accidents!

Oogway says that there are no accidents. And although he is a turtle from a kid’s film he is right. Everything happens for a reason. My friend broke his leg on one of the first days of his Exodus trip in a car crash. He just couldn’t understand why God let it happen. There he was, trying to help others for God and the next thing he’s in a plane heading back home. When his group came home they told him how the head of the Muslim church had became a Christian as he saw how little injuries they had after the crash. He knew how bad the crash was and was amazed how they only got a broken leg. There are no accidents!

Today is a gift

Sometimes we can just be so concerned on what we did yesterday and what were doing tomorrow we forget about today. The saying that Oogway used is, ‘Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.’ We can’t change yesterday. So why be concerned on something you’ve done yesterday? Pray for forgiveness and stop worrying. We can’t see to tomorrow. We never know what will happen. We cannot change anything as we haven’t got there yet. But today we live. Today is a gift gave to us by the grace of God. Don’t waste today. Use it for God as if it were your last, because it may actually be your last. God bless

Wanting what others have

Here we see Po saying how rubbish he is. He says he isn’t like the rest of the five. He hasn’t got claws or wings….  He says he thinks he should quit and go back to his normal life. He was just looking at the others. He saw they’re gifts and knew he hadn’t got them. He didn’t realize that he had his own gift. He just didn’t know about it so he couldn’t use it. You didn’t see the rest of the five complaining about not having others gifts. You didn’t see the tiger complaining on how she didn’t have wings. Instead she found her gift and used it. She found out what worked for her and use it.  Don’t look at other peoples gifts. It’s pointless! God made you different from everyone else and has given you a gift that matches you. A gift that only you can get the best out off. If you had someone else’s gift but was still you, you’d find that the gift was as good because you wouldn’t be able to use it in the same way. It wouldn’t suit you. Find your own gift that God has gave you and use it. In using this gift God will bless you and all those around you. God Bless
