Claim the promises of Scripture and hold tight to them. What is it that every day has in common for you? You may say brushing your teeth or eating or a number of things. But there are a few other things that ought to make the list.
I believe there are a few great daily goals we should strive for. Notice I did not say set resolutions. I didn’t challenge you to lose weight or build a new house. Let’s all find something that will take us further.
First, focus on your faith.
Romans 5:2 NLT
Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory.
Second, make sure your family know how important each of them are.
Job 4:3 NLT
In the past you have encouraged many people; you have strengthened those who were weak.
Third, read the word. Hide the word in you. Think about those verses often.
Proverbs 30:5 NLT
Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.
Fourth, take some risks or don’t play it safe.
Colossians 4:5 NLT
Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity.
I am reminded that far too often we hear people talk about the regrets not of what they did do but what they didn’t. At the end of life we will regret not seeking God or spending time with family or missing some awesome opportunity.
