"Iron Sharpens Iron" is a Message from Aubrey R. Taylor for Business, Civic, Political, Community and Corporate Leaders

“Be careful who you befriend. Some people enter our lives with ulterior motives. Keep this in mind: Many times, the people who become an albatross around the neck of successful people are more often than not, those who were at one point or another considered to be a close friend. Some relationships are only meant to be for a season; while others are meant for a lifetime. Good God-ordained friendships are what you have to be developing on your way up. And remember this: “As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” I found this in the book of Proverbs 27:17 in the New King James Version (NKJV) of the Bible.” -- AUBREY R. TAYLOR

I believe God is bringing the right kind of people into my life. I trust God. I am relying on His wisdom. I’m trusting in His faithfulness. I know I’m going to win. As iron sharpens iron I’m going to do my best to maintain Godly friendships as I press toward the good future He has planned for me.

Looking Ahead to the Tuesday, November 3, 2015 City of Houston Mayoral Election

Here are a few of the candidates whom I believe are eyeing the chance to succeed Mayor Annise Parker in the Tuesday, November 3, 2015 City of Houston Mayoral Election: Attorney Ben Hall, Attorney Chris Bell, State Rep. Sylvester Turner, Attorney Eric Dick, City Council Member Oliver Pennington, City Council Member Stephen Costello, Former Kemah Mayor Bill King, and Attorney Sean Roberts.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2015 for the 2015 City of Houston Mayoral Election. And I am looking forward to a record turnout, clean competitive races, and hopeful that we get a mayor who is committed to representing our entire city – not special interest groups.

FRIENDLY REMINDER

Don't forget to do all the research you can on the 2015 candidates running for City of Houston Mayor, City of Houston Controller, and Houston City Council in the Tuesday, November 3, 2015 City of Houston Mayoral Election.

"According to an ABCNews/Beliefnet Poll 83 percent of Americans identify themselves as Christians. So to this end, it makes perfect sense for us to get Christians engaged, empowered, informed, and excited about the process of choosing those who govern on the local, state, and federal levels in America. So don't forget about what Proverbs 29:2 teaches us: "When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn." -- AUBREY

MESSAGE: "Don't Turn Back" is a Motivational Thought for Today Published by Aubrey R. Taylor Communications

"Don't Turn Back"

“A lot of times, the difference between the person who makes it; and the person who doesn’t is this: one person turned back, and the other one didn’t. You aren’t going to just wake up one day and find yourself living your dream. It’s going to take some sweat equity. So never take no for an answer. Keep moving forward until you discover the yes that’s out there waiting for you to show up. And don’t ever make the mistake of identifying a closed door as a sign that your dream is not going to come true. Your yes, could be waiting for you behind the next door. So you have to keep right on knocking on doors. The path to our dreams can sometimes be daunting, tiring, and riddled with roadblocks; but don’t you give up -- you can do this! So hold fast to this today: “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” I found this in the book of Matthew 7:7-8 in the New King James Version (NKJV) of the Bible. Again, you can do this.” -- AUBREY R. TAYLOR

I believe God can direct me to the open doors. I trust God. I believe the word of God is true; and that doors are being opened for me. I won’t turn back.
