We have no greater goal, no greater joy or fulfillment than knowing God. No program or set of rules will change the way we think and live like our relationship with Him. I often think I need to try harder and be more motivated to be better. I often blame my up bringing, circumstances or others for not doing better. But such whining will never be acceptable on the day we give an account for our lives. Only Christ living in us and through us is the secret of character change. I need to put all distractions aside and focus on Him.
This is a great quote: “No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few pray-ers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere.” - Leonard Ravenhill
