Think About It
You’re only as good as your private standards.
When was the last time you gave a task your absolute best even though nobody but you would know about it?
-John Maxwell
Think About It
“Restlessness and impatience change nothing except our peace and joy. Peace does not dwell in outward things, but in the heart prepared to wait trustfully and quietly on Him who has all things safely in His hands.” –
Elisabeth Elliot
Think About It
“Do not train children to learning by force and harshness, but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.” -Plato
It doesn’t take long to discover a universal emotion we all wrestle with from our earliest days on earth: worry. We worry because of life’s many uncertainties. There are times we all feel vulnerable and not in control. What does this lead to? Worry.
Does anyone know everything about you? Your spouse would be the one who comes closest, but everything? I doubt it. Sometimes we are afraid to let people know us completely. After all, if they knew our sinful, selfish, and corrupt side we may be rejected. We naturally reveal our best actions and intentions and not the one’s generated by our fallen nature.
