Believe

When you ignite the flame inside your soul,

You can reach your goal.

Aim high and reach higher than you can aim.

Your life will never be the same.

How far you go depends on what you do.

The facilitator of your dreams is you.

                                                                      

Believe

Just believe.

God has already prepared a gift for you.

You have what you need to make your dreams come true.

When seeds of doubt block your way,

Stay the course and pray.

Keep your eyes on the prize.

Watch yourself rise.

On the wings of faith, your spirit will soar,

And God will lift you through every open door.

Congratulations Graduates-There's A Winner in You

Though there were obstacles in your way,
you made it to this day
This is just the beginning.
If you let nothing stop you,
There is so much more in store for you.
You have what it takes to go the distance in life.
You made the sacrifice
You got to this place
Because you decided to stay in the race.
It is said, "The race is not given to the swift or to the strong,
But to the one who endures until the end."
If you endure, you can win
What set you apart from those who did not make it to this day
Is your determination, strength and endurance.
Graduates, I congratulate you
And encourage you to continue to go as far as you can go.
There is so much more you need to learn.
Knowledge is a life-long pursuit.
You are never to smart or too old to learn something new.


P. Harris




There's A Winner in You


There's a winner in you.
Just let it shine through
All your dreams can come true.
Cause there's a winner in you.
Look beyond what you see.
Faith is the key
The impossible can be,
Your dreams can come true.
Cause there's a winner in you.

I dedicate this song to you.  Cause there is a winner in you.

You Define Your Place

You define your place on this earth.

Where you are from does not determine your worth

Because you’re from the hood,

Doesn't mean you have to grow up angry and misunderstood

Life is not just about where you’re at

You don’t have to relate to that

You have control

You define your own goals.

Success is not confined

To a person, place, or race.

You define your own place.

If you want to succeed.

Plant your own seed

In spite of the cards you're dealt,

You can have wealth.

If you never play your hand,

You’ll never prove you can stand.

You can create a positive outcome,

With purpose and vision for your life

And a willingness to sacrifice.

Whether you’re from Beverly Hills, Watts or East L.A,

You have to make your own way;

Define your own direction.

Life is like an election.

You have to cast your vote

Or you’ll miss the boat.

You have to make your life count for something.

Nothing from nothing, leaves nothing.

Don’t let anyone tell you what you can or can’t do.

That’s up to you.

Ask  President Obama about the negative things he heard.

He proved to the world, he didn’t believe a word.

He pursued his dreams with all his might,

And he won the fight.

Speak life into your dreams and you will see

Your dreams become reality.

I heard T.D. Jakes say just this morning something profound that I'd like to share with you.

"Don't settle for less when God has made you more."  

\

Destined to Be

It was not by chance that you were birthed

God ordained this day on earth.

While you were yet being formed

Before you were born

God knew all the while what was to be

He had already created your destiny

He created you to be a special child

One destined to go that extra mile,

He assigned this task to you

He knew you would do what was required of you

With his hand on you

There is nothing that you cannot do.

Let it be etched in your heart and in your soul

You are more precious than gold.

From the day of your birth,

God determined your worth.

Never be afraid to walk into your destiny.

You can be all that you were created to be.

Run fast, run free

Run straight into your destiny.

Congratulations to Graduates

                                        

The beauty of life is that God does nothing twice

There is a uniqueness of life

No two of us are the same

We have to make our own name

In time, we will find

Our own design,

Harness our talent, make it our own

And begin to water the seed that God has already planted.

If God has given you a song, sing.

If he has given you a picture, paint.

If he gives you a word, speak.

Rest in the gift that has been given you

And your true spirit will not only shine through,

God will earnestly bless everything you do.

Congratulations to you all and may this only be the beginning of the best of your life.
