Our Achieve or Christ’s? – Kristin Sterk

Analysis reveals that we make 35,000 decisions a day. Selections that lead us in direction of or away from the objectives and visions we have now for our lives. These tens of hundreds of decisions we make additionally lead us certainly one of two methods – both for our personal acquire or for Christ’s acquire. And I’ll readily admit, I can so rapidly make choices and decisions for my very own acquire, not maintaining Christ on the forefront.

We might imagine God doesn’t care about a few of our decisions, however I feel it’s what we do with them that issues. For the small decisions, find yourself piecing collectively an even bigger image of who we’re and what we’re pursuing. Is it Christ or is it me, myself, and I?

Does God care about what automotive we drive? I feel he cares about how we use what we drive to additional his Kingdom. What conversations do we have now in it? Who can we give rides to? Or can we drive what we do for standing and look? For our acquire or Christ’s?

Does God care about what we put on? I feel He cares about how a lot time we spend maintaining with what everybody else is sporting, how a lot time we spend scrolling, and the way a lot we spend to look a sure manner. For our acquire or Christ’s?

Does God care about how a lot we make? I feel he cares about how we use what he’s given us, to bless others and provides again to Him. Can we work to pad our accounts or to have extra to provide away? For our acquire or Christ’s?

Does God care what number of pals we have now? I feel he cares about who we’re a buddy to. Are we pals with folks for standing and private acquire? Or to be Christ to them and stroll alongside THEM?

In the case of my 35,000 decisions, these are the questions I always want to consider when making a call. Is it for my private acquire or for Christ’s? Ah, I wrestle.
