Happy You, Happy Life!Sample
DAY #11
SIMPLIFY
Order is a powerful way to advance your life. Busyness is not necessarily the same as advancement. We can be busy working at the wrong things (like watching too much TV), but it’s not going to advance our lives. Not only do we need to choose the highest priorities, but we also need to be productive at bringing order to those areas.
When Adam and Eve sinned, disorder and chaos came into the world, and everyone born into sin was born with a natural tendency to buck order. You know what I am talking about–the tendency to overeat, to leave a mess behind, to be slothful in business, to allow the weeds to take over!
We don’t need to buck God’s order; we need to buck the world’s system of calling evil good and good evil, which produces chaos in life. Order comes through discipline. I know that’s not a popular word, but discipline is the road to freedom!
If we are disciplined in our finances today, we will have more opportunities tomorrow. If we put it away now, our house will be easier to keep clean. If we have the discipline to make the tougher choices today, we can celebrate victories tomorrow. Many people want the success they have seen Gary and me have, but they are unwilling to do what we did to get there. Yet, we are still making decisions today to discipline ourselves so that tomorrow will be more fruitful.
Organize your life. Clean your house. Simplify your lifestyle so that you can maintain it with order. Properly align your relationships, finances and family. Order will bring blessing!
“You say, ‘I don't know how to do this! I feel overwhelmed!’ You only have to ask me for the wisdom, assistance and guidance you seek. You don't have to attempt it alone. I have created you for relationship. Let me be the sounding board and the friend you seek. I ordered the universe and I know how to help you manage your tasks. I'll send others, but first things first. Start with me and let my Spirit direct your steps and bring alignment in your life. Light be and order come!”
