For quite a while, thereโs been โone thingโ I need to focus and deliver on to improve the quality of my life. Unintentionally, Iโve managed to run around it like Jericho without getting through it. While pondering it this morning, a passage of scripture came to mind:
๐ข๐ป๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐, ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ธ ๐ฎ๐ณ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ; ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฑ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ต๐ผ๐๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐บ๐ ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ฒ, ๐๐ผ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ต๐ผ๐น๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐ถ๐ป๐พ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ. ๐ฃ๐๐ฎ๐น๐บ ๐ฎ๐ณ:๐ฐ
Here are a few lessons from this text:
1๏ธโฃ๐ข๐ป๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Focus is essential to successfully accomplishing projects/tasks. Donโt be a jack of all trades; if you struggle to multitask, prioritize and concentrate on one thing at a time.
2๏ธโฃ๐๐ผ๐ฎ๐น๐/ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ท๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐: These are synonymous with the โdefinition of doneโ and must be identified to clarify expectations, direction, and destination. For the Psalmist, it was โto dwell in the house, to behold Godโs beauty, and to inquire in his templeโ.
3๏ธโฃ๐๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ: Focus and goals need to be fuelled with passion to enable success. This passion often drives the plan of action which sets your goals in motion.
4๏ธโฃ๐๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: This is the process of actualizing your goals and the culmination of everything. โSeeking afterโ implies that you are proactive and in pursuit โ making things happen as opposed to waiting to respond to things after they happen.
๐๐ต๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ: 1) Focus on and prioritize your โone thingโ. 2) Commit to completing it within a specific time period and get to work. 3) Find an accountability partner to help assess your progress on your commitment. 4) Celebrate your success once done. 5) Testify: glorify God and encourage others too #fulfilmentcomes #hollaapraise #theonething
