The story behind the idea
However good things are today, God has a path for things to be better. Whatever is not so good in your life right now, God wants you to use those trials to develop deeper faith, but there is almost always a path to better. The entire premise for starting this podcast was simple and remains consistent today.
What stands out
Are you ready for the fact that God may expect even more? Maybe we could put it this way there are some people who are doing some things, but they need to get out there and do something. Kind of cool, I look back at the first six or eight months of episodes at some of the titles that were about leading you or motivating you to a direction that is better, and I'd like to reference a few of those today.
Why it matters
I want to speak to you on behalf of everyone who loves you and believes in you. When it comes to achieving the potential that Christ has invested in you, when it comes to infusing your life with difficult challenges that helped you clearly identify your purpose for being here. Regardless of what stage in life you're in, I'll kind of combine our very first episode with the tattoo that Sam wears on his arm and tell you to just do something. Something small but definitive, something that clearly changes direction, even if it means incrementally.
A faithful way forward
I'm not going to throw Matthew twenty-five at you today, but we cannot afford to do nothing when it comes to helping people. Then even if you're in that last stage of life, in what is probably your last 15 or 20 years on this earth, you may think today's message just isn't for you.
Put it into practice
If nothing else, you can share the kindness and the grace of Christ with the people in your life. If you want to do something for yourself but you don't know what it is yet, then do something for someone else.
