If we want to be great, if we want people to remember us when they talk about great leaders, people of integrity, persons who changed their communities, people who did it well and did it right, then "this is the time to step up!”
This is the time to stop living on our own and according to our selfish desires. This is the day, the time, and the moment in history that we must make the decision to start living for God, to live every day by the power of the Holy Spirit, and to trust in, rely on, lean on and walk with Christ.
This is the time to give up our individualistic plans and half baked ideas of what life and success look like and take up the plans and purposes God has for us— that of knowing Him and doing His will!
Surrendering to God, as Lord and Savior, leads us to a long, prosperous and God honoring life. Standing on God’s grace lead us to “prosper”, gives us a “future filled with hope,” and helps us stay on straight paths. Standing on the firm foundation of Christ Jesus, who is “the way, the truth, and the life,” gives us “real and eternal life, more and better life than [we] ever dreamed,” and lead us to the “good, pleasing, and perfect will of God”!
If ”people remember winners,” then let us run to win , pressing toward the goal of eternal life in Christ, and remember that “we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us so much that He died for us (Romans 8:37 AMP).”
Run to win in all the ways that matter in eternity—
