Goal Oriented


"Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it." ~ Habakkuk 2:2

For the new year, Michele and I decided to write down our goals for 2009.

Why?

Because we understood the principle of writing the vision down and making it plain.

I once heard it said that whatever you expect from God is what He will get. The Bible says asks and you shall receive (Matthew 7:7). So, if you expect a little, you’ll get a little. If you expect nothing at all, you’ll get nothing at all. But if you expect exceedingly, abundantly above all you could ever ask or think, God is faithful to give it to you.

Now, you may not get what you want when you want it, but the Bible says that it will surely come to pass if you believe.

Well, there’s something about writing something down that makes it tangible. It makes it real, almost like a thing unto itself. So, by writing our goals down, we made them real. We materialized them. We processed them in our spirit and now we are ready to tackle the new year with renewed force and passion.

So, just try it. What could it hurt?

There’s even a website that can help you get started called My Life List. Check it out and take the first step in making your dreams into your reality.

God bless,
J.W.
