Troop Carrier or Luxury Liner

Troop Carrier or Luxury Liner

“In the late 1940s, the United States government commissioned William Francis Gibbs to work with United States Lines to construct an eighty million-dollar troop carrier for the navy. The purpose was to design a ship that could speedily carry fifteen thousand troops during times of war. By 1952, construction on the SS United States was complete. The ship could travel at forty-four knots (about fifty-one miles per hours), and she could steam ten thousand miles without stopping for fuel or supplies. She could outrun any other ship and travel nonstop anywhere in the world in less than ten days. The SS United States was the fastest and most reliable troop carrier in the world.

The only catch is that she never carried troops. At least not in any official capacity. The ship was put on standby once during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, but otherwise she was never used in all her capacity by the U.S. Navy.

Instead, the SS United States became a luxury liner for presidents, heads of state and a variety of other celebrities who traveled on her during her seventeen years of service. As a luxury liner, she couldn’t carry fifteen thousand people. Instead, she could house just under two thousand passengers. Those passengers could enjoy the luxuries of 695 staterooms, 4 dining salons, 3 bars, 2 theaters, 5 acres of open deck with a heated pool, 19 elevators, and the comfort of the world’s first fully air-conditioned passenger ship. Instead of a vessel used for battle during wartime, the SS United States became a means of indulgence for wealthy patrons who desired to coast peacefully across the Atlantic.

Things look radically different on a luxury liner than they do on a troop carrier.

------ITS TIME FOR YOU TO MOVE INTO YOUR NEXT LEVEL! -------

I mean, we all started out deeply in love with who we are, but somewhere in there, we got told who we are and how far we can go. We were told that as long as we did things a certain way, we would be accepted, and we didn't pay that much mind because we were young and easily manipulated. We trusted those who we thought had our best interests at heart. Now, years later, we see the damage it has taken on us. So, of course, we want to be free, but now we have egos to deal with.

Now see, ego works to keep us right where we have always been because its familiar. And the behaviors you have picked up are so tightly woven into the fabric of you that you even believe that these behaviors, habits, and mindsets are the real you.

Ego has to work at a sneaky pace, so you don't pay attention. So yeah, your friends want to hang out tonight, but you know you said you were going to mediate, pray, and try to heal from the past. RIGHT? What about stepping out and doing what you always dreamed of—owning your own business? No, you can't do that because your family members said it would fail.

So here you are, a vessel fashioned by your loved ones, bullies, your community for war, but the war is over! The years of what your parents said, the kids in school, everyone that doubted you are over, the rape, the neglect, the abuse is over!! Yet you replay it every day as if it were actually happening right now in this very moment. WHY!!?? Because you never healed!!!!

And its not that you don't believe something better is deep down inside of you; you just don't know how you could possibly get there from where you are.

But you love your comforts, and you want to have the cake and eat it. You say well ill be alright, not everyone gets to be famous, not everyone makes a million dollers, we all cant be happy?? Right??

Did it ever occur to you that the greatness inside of you is unlike anyone else? Or no matter who you are you have something special to give the world? Did you know that God, Infinite Intelledge, gave you a story that would heal the nation??

Its time for you to stop hiding behind your pain. Stop burying what happened and decide today you will release it. Get up and dust off those business plans, go get that loan for your business, go back to school, get up and try whatever it is again!

DO you know your letting your dreams die every day you don't get up and get to work? Your dulling senses!

How dull have you allowed your senses to become??? Are you hearing in the spirit realm like you are supposed to ??? Are you seeing in the spirit like you are supposed to???

We have been allowing our greatness to rust away ...but not anymore!!

Its time to wave that warship of pain from our past off and welcome that luxury liner of YOU, The real you that always wanted to come out into the world!! It's time to stop caring about what others say and do something that makes you happy!

...and watch them all stare and marvel at your radiance!

I love you all!
