Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
What of Today’s Verse…
Our actions follow our thoughts like a heat-seeking missile follows the exhaust of a jet fighter’s engine. So in a day when so much around us trains us to find the negative in life, we must aggressively think and pursue the character, the qualities, and the things of God’s goodness.
Let us Pray:
Holy and Magnificent God, thank you for being better than anything my world can offer me. Thank you for calling me to a higher standard than the world accepts. Thank you for giving me the promise of a better future than any human can imagine. Thank you for giving me a high calling. In Jesus’ holy name I pray. Amen.
Words of Wisdom
One more…
What if you knew that just one more obstacle stood between you and the success you desire? Would you do anything necessary to get past that obstacle?
At some point in every achievement, the final hurdle is reached. Yet all too often that hurdle is never crossed. Too many people simply give up, just one challenge short of the goal.
What a shame it would be to come so far, and not go the distance. Somewhere ahead of you is the final obstacle. When you work your way around it, you’ve made it.
Is the challenge you face right now, the final one before everything starts to fall into place? The only way to know is to get yourself on the other side of it. One thing is for sure. Each hurdle you cross will get you nearer the success you’ve worked so diligently to achieve. Keep pushing yourself forward. Do whatever it takes. You’ll soon leap over the final hurdle and land right where you want to be.
