TODAY’S SCRIPTURE. “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,”(Philippians‬ ‭3:13‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

Most of us often find it difficult to remain committed and steadfast in the pursuit of our goals.Life is demanding to say the least.The capacity to manage ones finances, health, relationships, career and a host of other things makes it arduous. No wonder we often neglect those things which are important to us.

You might find your relationships falling apart when you least expect, your health deteriorates or your finances takes a beating. At this point you’re perplexed how this all came to pass without seeing the writing on the wall. Managing life requires vigilance, dedication and commitment.

Life will continuously test your resolve to see how much you desire your goal. This quote by Richard Carlson puts it aptly thus "Don’t sweat the small stuff, because in the end its only small stuff”. I often hear several reasons people recount why they gave up. It typically follows this course of dialogue: “It wasn’t meant to be,” “It wasn’t fun anymore,” or “Life is all about having fun.” The point worth mentioning is our minds have the ability to create any mental state we impose upon it.

How many stories or biographies about successful people have you read where the narrative involved smooth sailing or an easy path toward success? Very few I would imagine.Success requires commitment,discipline, hard work, perseverance, tenacity, will, courage and faith.

TODAY'S PRAYER

Power of focus.
When motivated from the inside little or no outside push, we tend to find our purpose more accurately. Just like Paul.
