Morning Minute for 4/16/2018

Why??

What are your motives?

Not just why do you want to succeed, but also are you called to do what you're trying to succeed at.

Many times we attempt to do what looks good from where we sit, or imitate what someone else is doing, or emulate the success of someone else.

Some pastors want to be a big name pastor, because it looks easy. Some business people see shark tank and get excited to be a Mark Cuban. Not taking the time to analyze whether that's really what we are called to do and what will make us happy.

If you are in business, always try to offer REAL benefit to your customers. If you are in ministry, see how you can be a blessing not just a curse. See how YOU can be bless not just how you can be blessed.

Whether it's Business or Ministry it is critical to understand what it is you're supposed to be doing. It's been said if you do what you like you'll never work a day in your life. That does not mean that everything that you like will bring happiness to your life.

When your motives are in the right order, success is just that much closer.

Take a minute today and look at the vision of where you're trying to go and count the cost. Scripture teaches us that we should count the cost for actions that we're about to undertake.

Not just can we do it, because we can do all things through Christ. But whether it's truly God's will that we do do it.

So always know your why! When you know your why it's also easy to say no to anything that's not a part of your why.

I hope you have a great day and a great week. Make sure you get your taxes done and I'll see you again real soon.
