“All the dragons in our lives are perhaps princesses expecting us to be handsome and brave.
All the terrifying things are perhaps nothing but helpless things waiting for us to help them”

"Go all out for the people you believe in. Treat them like there is no other option than for them to succeed"
I loved that. When I read it, I felt vindicated, justified, and encouraged. You may be asking, "what are you talking about Meeks?"
There is something to be said about going to bat for the people you love, for the people you see great potential in. In fact, you and I know this to be true, that we should fight for the sucess of those we are close to. We should strive for them to have opportunities to learn, to grow, and to develop.
For the people that you believe in, you should be your best self- always in tune with the Lord, always vigilent and aware of the things that seek to harm them and take them down. You should always have time for them and space for them in your life.
Fight for people. Fight for their happiness and their strength. Fight when they are weak but fight when they are strong. Defend them. Hold them in the highest regard no matter their position. Fight for them even when they've made a bad call or decision. Fight as if every part of their success relies on your ability to help guide them and shape them.
Those are just a few thoughts. Here's my point, there are people around you that you believe in, that God has given you a profound vision for. I'm saying take that insight into someone's life and run the best race with them. Venture along side them. Fight for them, fight for your people.
