Devotional

We make resolutions and often set goals to help give us a structure we can adhere to. But every so often, we get disappointed when reality shifts and all our plans are no longer valid. So, it’s wise that for every goal, we develop many plans and actions that will serve the goal. If one plan fails, no need to get discouraged, just select another one.

Key Scripture

For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it—
Luke 14:28 NKJV

Refreshing for the Day

Beloved, a great deal of flexibility resides in the knowledge that for every goal we set, we develop many plans and actions that will serve the goal. The devil is not always responsible for some of the unfavorable predicaments people encounter by not accomplishing their set goals. Yes, and no witch nor wizard is after them; rather, it’s poor planning and lack of viable planning options accounted for it.

Again, when we hit a rock, or some sort of circumstances occurred during the course of carrying out our plan and actions to achieve our goals. It’s often times, nobody’s fault, and we don’t need to panic nor abandon the project. It could be a sign that the adopted plan is not working, so we need to quickly switch to another plan and move on. But until tomorrow, Stay Refreshed!

Note This

The devil is not always responsible for some of the unfavorable predicaments people encounter by not accomplishing their set goals, rather poor planning and lack of viable planning options accounted for it.

Responsibility

For every goal you set, develop many plans and actions to serve it.
