Lance's Revelation

1 of 1

There was a young man named Lance,
Who flew by the seat of his pants.
Till one day he found,
A solution profound:
Not leaving so much to chance.

He decided to plan ahead,
Not just from the top of his head.
And to his surprise,
It opened his eyes.
"Toward my goals, I am now sped!"

Lance's goals have begun to grow;
In everything he plans like a pro,
'Cause he learned the great lesson,
To keep on progressin’,
Proactive planning's the way to go!

P.S.: He also found that his pants didn't wear out as fast.

“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty” (Proverbs 21:5 NLT).

Get to the Finish Line!

1 of 1

Life is full of challenges that can push you beyond what you feel capable of doing. Sometimes the challenge is easy to embrace because it’s something you want to achieve. Other times the struggle is real, tough, and the end goal seems unattainable. But any goal that is of value to you is worth the effort because it will take you to the next level of your growth as an individual and make the struggle worthwhile (even if it comes with bumps and dips along the way).

The greatest achievements in life usually come at a cost, whether it’s sacrificing in other areas, changing habits, or in resetting mindsets in order to reach that goal. Think of those “costs” as the prodding that will push you further along your path to success.

Turn to Jesus for help when you face a challenge that seems daunting. He can give you the faith, courage, and perseverance you need to keep pushing forward. If you don’t tire in doing what is good and right, you will reap a harvest of blessing because you didn’t give up.1 So hold on just that much longer, push yourself just another step, and crawl—if you must—to cross the finish line of success in whatever challenge you’re facing.\

“So let us run the race that is before us and never give up. We should remove from our lives anything that would get in the way. And we should remove the sin that so easily catches us. Let us look only to Jesus. He is the one who began our faith, and he makes our faith perfect” (Hebrews 12:1–2 ICB).
