Renewing Our Mind for God
What kind of mind does God want the Christian woman to possess? The answer is quite simple: a surrendered mind; a mind that is willing to obey and to do His will. If the answer is that simple, then why is it that so many Christian women struggle with depression, are so unhappy, seem to be living unfilled lives or continually relive painful episodes from the past, which in turn instills negative or fearful barriers preventing her from becoming a whole and complete person in Christ?
Aim for the Stars
Challenge yourself — aim for the stars. Choose a challenge that requires time, effort, dedication and commitment, and then see it through to completion. Do not select an easy project, but one that will challenge you mentally — something that is difficult — than pray for guidance. God wants Christian women to constantly grow and improve, and what better way of growing than by taking up a challenge.
The most valuable lessons are not those that come to us easily. The things that mean the most to us are the goals, challenges and experiences, which we put our most into.
Invest ALL of yourself in doing God’s work, taking up challenges for Him—and in service for others.
Imagine how absolutely invigorating it will be to look back on a difficult and challenging job that you have completed and have that feeling of accomplishment. You will discover that by doing and completing the challenge at hand will have helped by adding to the formation and development of your character, which in turn makes you a more balanced Christian woman. Imagine all the things that you can do through Christ.
It is a blessing that life is filled with challenges. It is an inestimable blessing that God has placed challenges in the Christian woman’s life. It is by working through the challenges that are presented to us that makes the Christian woman truly shine. Yes, without any reservations, take up the challenge and AIM FOR THE STARS.
