Live Skillfully
Today's Devotional Reading: 2 Ki 24; Jer. 22; ps. 112; Jn. 18
August 16, 2010
By reading the scripture above each day you will read the Old Testament through in one year and the New Testament through twice in a year. This will change your life. Start Today!
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings..." (Proverbs 22:29).
TODAY'S WORD
Too often times, it's easy to get stuck in a rut in life, doing the same thing the same way. But if we are going to live at our best, we should constantly be growing and sharpening our skills. We should strive to learn and grow every single day; because when you stop learning, you stop growing, and when you stop growing, you stop living. What are you doing to stretch yourself? What are you doing to improve your skills? Don't get trapped into thinking that "good enough" is good enough. You are created for more than just average. Today is a new day and there are new heights for you to climb. Pursue what you love, and keep developing that area of your life. Take a class or find a mentor that will help you live skillfully. As you do, you'll rise up higher and higher. You will stand before kings and rulers and you'll live the blessed life He has in store for you.
Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me the ability to grow and increase in every area of my life. Show me ways to improve my skills so that I can honor You in everything I do. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
We sure love you!
Eric & Rita
