"Whoever pursues godliness and unfailing love will find life, godliness, and honor." (Proverbs 21:21)
What are you pursuing today? What is your day going to be about? You
don't have to be a victim to your circumstances. You get to choose the
focus of your day. We often bounce around from moment to moment
reacting to people and problems without taking the time to actually
live. It's as if someone else is living our life for us. We're on
autopilot and our thoughts and emotions come spilling out without much
consideration.
The Proverb today suggests an alternative to merely trudging through the
day. Live on purpose! Pursue godliness and unfailing love! Go deeper
with God and make a difference in someone's life today. Live! Laugh!
Love!
