The Rule of 5:
It’s better to do the right thing everyday,
than to do the right thing some days.
“An intelligent person aims at wise action, but a fool starts off in many directions.” (Proverbs 17:24 GN)
> Be intentional.
> Be practical.
> Be consistent.
> Expect results.
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew 6:33)
