Set Goals

If you’ve ever done the hard work of getting into good physical shape, you know it’s a journey. Nobody shows up to the gym on day one and is everything that they can be. It takes days, weeks, and months of hard work and a rigid plan to accomplish your goals and grow.

When it comes to your walk with God, what are your goals? Do you hope that you just become a better person by going to church or reading the Bible? Or are there areas in your life (like the way you love others, your thinking patterns, or self-discipline) that you specifically want to grow in? So often, we just try to make it through the day and hope we get a little bit better. But how will you know at the end of the day if you got “a little bit better” or just stayed the same? Writing down the ways you want to grow, praying over those areas, and seeking opportunities throughout your day can give you focus and direction as you grow in Christ.

Make specific goals to guide your day. With them, you’ll be able to make decisions to grow and become more like Jesus.
