Time to Wake Up

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. (2 Timothy 4:7)

I cannot tell you how many times I have looked at this verse and asked myself, “will this be true of me some day.”  I believe with my whole heart that we can’t wait until tomorrow to start living out this verse.  We have to live it out today!  You can’t wait until next year to concern yourself about the kind of legacy you will leave behind because you’re not guaranteed next year.  You might not even be guaranteed next week, or tomorrow.  That’s not supposed to be a sad thought, it’s supposed to be your “good morning” wake up call!  It’s time to wake up and start living for God in a way that will show people you are running a marathon, not a 100-yard dash.  Will you be able to say you fought a good fight, finished the race, and kept the faith?  Let’s run the race together and finish well!

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.  Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.  For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.  (Colossians 3:1-3)

If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.  (C.S. Lewis)

Finding True North

Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this… (Psalm 37:5)

Let’s take a look at chapter 12 today called, “Finding True North”…

…We have explored the need to trust God with everything then we went into how to simply dwell in the land. The road didn’t end there though. We continued to follow it through the steps of delighting ourselves in God and finding out what His desires are for our lives. Now we are coming to an overpass. At least this is how I look at it. I look at commitment as an overpass because it can be an uphill battle at times, but it’s in rising above our circumstances that we become strong enough to travel the road of life…

Who Needs Blueprints?

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. (Psalm 37:3)

This week, I want to share something near and dear to my heart with you.  I want to share some chapters from my book Life’s Compass for Eternal Treasure.  The second edition of this book was released on June 24th this year, but due to the craziness of life I have not been able to share it with you.  This new edition includes a great study guide that you can use as an individual or with a group.  To celebrate the new release of this book, I will be doing a BOGO sale.  If you can show me proof of purchase for one book, I will send you one for a friend.  There are a few ways you can purchase books.  The easiest way to get the BOGO sale is to purchase straight from my personal bookstore.  If you would rather purchase from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or any other online bookstore that is fine too.  Please just send me an email with proof of purchase and your address and I will be happy to send you a book for a friend.

Harvest

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant. (Robert Louis Stevenson)
