LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)
"....It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you...(Philipians 3:1NIV)
SEEK PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION
Have you any idea how often the people you admire got it wrong, half right, almost right, before they got it right? Making mistakes is the unenjoyable, unaviodable part of making progress. That's why Paul said '...it is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safegurd for you(Philipians 3:1). He understood that you have to keeping hearing and doing it in order to get it right.
Stop comparing yourself with others. The Bible says...When they measure themselves by themselves...they are not wise'(2Corinthians 10:12NIV). Some of us given five talents, some two, and some one. Your talents not your wishes, dtermine your potential. One talent people who make the most of what they've been given receive the same 'well done' as five talent people. The one who gets into trouble is the one who fails to take the risk; their biggest mistake is their unwillingness to make a mistake! Dr. John Maxwell says, 'your performance depends on your commitment to practice. Consistently good practice will lead to consistently good play. It sharpens you. Wise people understand this, and develop the discipline to do it. 'If you want to sum what lifts most individuals above the crowd, you could do it in these four words: A little bit more. Successful people do what's expected of them plus a little bit more. So what God will have you consider today is seek to make progress not perfection.
Prayer Point
Father I connect to the wisdom that help me realize my destiny in Jesus name.
