Complete the Assignment

Be like a postage stamp – stick to one thing until you get there. – M. Carty

Though Elijah called down fire from heaven and spectacularly destroyed Baal’s prophets, his original commission was just to announce the coming rain. He REMEMBERED!

Success is great but it can also be distracting as we seek to follow God. Often when something spectacular happens in our lives we tend to dwell there. We tend to prefer the dramatic and good far more than the mundane. If we aren’t careful, we may become distracted by the successes we experience in our life so much that we never complete what God originally assigned us to do. May we be careful that our successes today do not get in the way of obedience tomorrow.

Until tomorrow…

Can't Do You

What God called you to do, I can't! - Anon

God could have called anyone to preach to the Ninevites, but only Jonah could get the whole town to repent. Hmm!

Whether it's the bible or a history book, you'll run across the names of people who did great things for humanity's sake. But that being said, history and the world is full of unnamed heroes who were just as important. The reason being is that every individual - and that includes you - has purpose in this life. For us as faithful believers that includes helping to build up and strengthen the kingdom of God. And God has specific things He wants to accomplish through you personally. He has gifted you for it, So neither I, nor anyone else can do it for you. It's your God-given assignment. But know that with God your assignment will always be in line with the greater work He has called the Church - all of us - to do. So, time's a wastin!' Grab your faith and come on.

Until Monday...
