Today, I was praying to God that my life might be
significant for His Kingdom, and then praying that it might give glory to Him.
However, upon further reflection (today I’m staying home and right now kicking
back near out outdoor fountain), it seems that those things are out of my
control.
I can certainly continue to pray for them. But, more
immediately and in my perceived control, is that I can focus my available time on
being the FULLY developed human being that God intended me to be.
I can determine what that might be by looking at the
talents, experiences and blessing that I currently have. For example, I was blessed
with children; and so I need to be a better parent. I’ve been blessed to be an
attorney. I need to be a better one. I was born with artistic talent. Should I
allow that to go dormant? From here on
out, I vow to consciously spend more time and focused attention on the things
that are within my power, namely improving through investments of time the
things I already have.
Where that takes me, is up to God.
