"Stop being deceived; God is not to be ridiculed. Whatever one reaps he will also sow." -Galatians 6:7
Get fit. Spend more time with friends and family. Quit a vice. Read the bible every day. Donate.
Sound familiar around every January 1st?
Why is it that we struggle to maintain our New Years Resolutions?
Well, we make our resolutions so unrealistic and demanding! We are all looking for some shortcut, a silver bullet to lead us to the success of our goal. The problem persists in passivity and improbable expectations. For example, we cannot expect to go from never exercising to hitting the gym two hours per day. Completely unrealistic. Not to mention impractical.
Obedience matters today. Set an obtainable goal for yourself, challenging yet accessible. Then, fight passivity on the threshold before it causes your progress to become idle.
