Relentless Sample

A lot of people want their lives to matter! Who wouldn’t want their life to make a difference? One of the best ways to make a difference is to first look for inspiration and encouragement from others who have made a difference. Paul did a lot of things with his life. He pastored many churches, wrote at least thirteen letters that are now books of the Bible, and he traveled the world in an age when travel was very difficult. How was he able to do these things? He did anything short of sin to make it happen. He gave up everything. He was relentless. I think it’s easy to want to do something great, but it is hard to be consistent in doing what leads to big things. In Hebrews 12:1, the author tells us what relentlessness looks like. Reflect: What things in our life keep you from accomplishing what matters? How many hours a day do you spend on your phone? Watching TV? What could you accomplish with that time accumulated over the course of one month?
