*CONCERNING EFFECTIVENESS IN LIFE:*
*Philippians 3:13*
*"Brethren, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead ..."*
Fellow Disciples, Yielded Vessels and Witnesses for Christ,
*Effectiveness in life does not come from pursuing everything that comes your way, but from aligning yourself with destiny by choosing, valuing and focusing on one single thing. Then, pursuing 'it' with all your focus, investing all your efforts and resources! This is what gives life true stability of direction, mastery and value!*
There's always that purpose that completes you (ministerial assignment, vocation, work or career), a place you call home (family, church or workplace) and a person you account to or is accountable to you (authority or a partner). When you have defined these and you focus on them, you will be effective!
*Be intentional at putting efforts into that 'one' thing that God has defined in your life for destiny. This can be that one - ministry or church, calling or assignment, pastor, spouse, offspring, family, business, career, vision or dream! You will not regret if you stop spreading yourself and focus on one!*
For, whatever occupies your heart will influence your mind, direct your resources and give your life a shape. Where you invest your finances, talents and skills, spend time, serve, get served or serviced, will be the path, gate and platform to your effectiveness in life. (Matthew 6:21)
*Resolve to Focus, Invest into it all you can and guard it with the disciplines that guarantee quality destiny! God honours and works with such a resolved heart and mind, and always blesses it to be effective! (James 1:8)*
Be effective, not just busy!
Keep yielded to Witness.
