 Are You Fulfilling Your Potential
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
What you set your heart on will determine how you spend your time and energy. It takes as much effort to live an unfulfilled life as a rich rewarding one. The human brain has 2-billion megabytes of capacity, which means you have lots of room for growth. One of the most rewarding things you can do this year is to work to develop your mind! In Proverbs 29:18 we read: 'Where there is no vision the people perish...' Dissatisfaction does not come from an absence of things, but a lack of direction. Too many of us are wallowing in our own misery because we have settled for less than God intended. The quality of your life is determined by your vision; and the effort you are willing to put into fulfilling it. So make a written list of the areas in which you would like to grow, and then tackle the three or four most important. And do not get discouraged if the one you are working on does not want to cooperate. Remember, nothing great is ever created suddenly. Paul said, '...I keep working towards the day when I will finally be all that Christ...wants me to be.' Notice, it is a process; you have to work at it! Some days it will feel like two steps forward and three back. But do not give up. It is better to die for something than to live for nothing. And unless you try something beyond what you have already mastered, you will not grow. So, what are you waiting for? Life? It's waiting for you; get going!
