DAY 30 OF 30

Today’s Decisions Could Have a Great Impact Tomorrow

On January 15, 1919, an excellent leader was born in the country of Belize. Now considered the “father of the nation,” George Price was one of the chief architects of Belize’s independence from Britain. After independence, Price became the first prime minister of Belize. From the early 1960s until 1996, he essentially served as the nation’s head of government under a variety of titles. Known for being a humble leader who lived simply and freely engaged with the Belizean people, in 2000 Price became the first person to receive Belize’s highest honor, the Order of National Hero, given to recognize the role he played in Belize’s independence.

Price originally planned to study theology in Rome, but that plan changed with the advent of World War II. Price had to instead attend el Mayor Seminario Conciliar in Guatemala City. But after just nine months, he returned home to Belize to be near his dying father, and that simple choice put him on a path that would lead him into politics.

The Bible says in Galatians 5:25, “Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.” A small decision today could have a big impact on tomorrow. Just consider what might happen if you remember to floss tonight or exercise tomorrow morning or attend church this Sunday or spend a special time with someone you love. God can use those simple choices to help you grow in your knowledge of Him and fulfill your purpose in God’s kingdom. The impact of your choices doesn’t always take a long time to manifest itself, either. 

Imagine you’re writing the story God wants your life to tell in five or ten years. What does God want you to want for your future? Where do you believe God wants you to be? What changes will it take for you to get there? Write down your thoughts. Your ideas don’t have to be perfect. You don’t have to commit to what you write yet. Just capture on paper the first thoughts that come to mind about what you think God wants for your future.

Based on what you think God wants you to want, what disciplines do you need to start walking in the direction God wants you to go? Don’t hesitate to ask Him. Ask the Lord how He wants you to grow. Ask Him for wisdom and insight to know what habits, choices, and routines in your life need to change. Then choose one thing to change. You will be tempted to choose three, four, or even ten. But choose only one thing to change, because if you choose more than one, you probably won’t accomplish any of them. If you select only one, you can start writing the story that God wants you to write.
