A few nights ago while walking the kitties I was amazed at how bright Venus was. It almost looked unreal, for a moment I thought I might be looking at an airplane tail light but its steady position soon confirmed its identity. Curious about the spectacular vision I decided to check why it was so bright and learned that its position in relation to the Sun in January this year allowed it to be brighter than other times of the year.
If we plan to be spectacular in life, we have to consider our position. Are we walking in obedience to God's word? Have we applied discipline in our lives to achieve greatness? They say that if you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.
Today I'd like to speak honestly about the spiritual discipline of work ethic. It is sad to me today to see so many people whom have wonderful dreams and high expectations but they succeed at nothing and wonder why. The truth is that they simply did not work for it. Success in life depends greatly on our ability to do what needs to be done in order to achieve and to be dedicated to the task at hand. If we don't apply ethics to our lives at work or in our spiritual lives, then we will most certainly fail.
I'd like to encourage you to take honest stock of where you stand with regards to work ethic....Do you do just enough to get by?......Or.... Do you apply yourself to whatever life throws at you with all your heart and soul? I believe if you do, you will be positioned right and you will be the brightest star around!
