ئەپەکە بەدەست بهێنەLift Off: Seeking What Is Above Through The Psalms Of Ascentنموونە
Progress With Purpose
When you’re experiencing progress, it’s both exciting and demanding. It requires your skill, your strength, your focus, and your time. It’s also the time when we are most likely to fall into the trap of self-reliance. Progress detached from purpose leads to success without satisfaction. If we don’t want our progress to be wasted we need to acknowledge our dependence on God; looking to Him for wisdom, guidance, strength, and help. Where are you relying on your own efforts to succeed instead of trusting in God?
He saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our own accomplishments, but according to his own purpose and the grace that was given to us in Jesus.
— 2 Timothy 1:9 ISV
Prayer: Lord, there are many things that fight for my attention and cause me to lose sight of what You want to build in my life. Help me to tune my heart to Your presence and the things that You want me to see. Forgive me for where I’ve lost my focus and help me to remember that my reward comes from You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
