(CS4U) Vision - Part 1



 

Vision – Part 1

 

Where there is no vision, the people perish.
Proverbs 29:18

 

Everybody ends up somewhere. A few end up somewhere on purpose; they are the ones with vision. A clear vision, along with the courage to follow through, dramatically increases your chances of coming to the end of your life, looking back with satisfaction and thinking, "I succeeded. I finished well. My life counted; I made a difference." But without a clear vision, odds are you will reach the end and wonder if your life really mattered at all. Vision gives meaning to otherwise meaningless details. Let's face it; much of what we do each day does not appear to matter a lot when evaluated apart from the bigger picture. But take the minutiae of any given day, drop them into the mix of a God-ordained vision, stir them around and suddenly there is purpose! Worth! Adrenaline! It is the difference between filling bags with dirt or building a dyke to save the town. There is nothing glamorous about filling bags with dirt, but saving the town is something else altogether. Building a dyke gives meaning to the drudgery of filling bags with dirt. And so it is with vision. Too many times the routines of life begin to feel like shoveling dirt. But take those same routines and view them through the lens of a God-given purpose, and suddenly everything looks different. Vision brings your world into focus. It brings order to chaos. It enables you to see everything differently. So, do you have a clear vision for your life? Is it in line with God's Vision?

 

Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me see through the details of things to see the big picture of what you are doing. Help me stay focused on you. In Jesus' Name, Amen
