Fulfilling your assignments

Every day you live you are in the process of becoming. What you become, depends on what you give yourself to. I love this quote from an anonymous author from a daily devotional. Some of the steps to grow are,
1. By making a commitment to grow daily, it wont be long before you see real change.
2. Value the process more than the product.
3. Dont wait for inspiration. It is not excitement but most times only
commitment will carry you through.
4. If you are willing to pay now you will enjoy the rewards later and those rewards always taste sweeter.
5. Dont limit God. By focusing on your limitations you magnify them. Focus on the one who can do exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think.
6. Learn to master your time. You cannot recover lost time, so make every moment count.
7. Always trade up not down.
To fulfill your daily assignment follow these steps.
Think about our course assignments. I think these steps surely will assist us in fulfilling them as well as our life assignments. What are your thoughts?

Mercy,
I enjoyed reading your blog postings! I especially liked number 5. Don't limit God. By focusing on your limitations you magnify them. Focus on the one who can do exceeding abondantly above all that we can ask or think. This was what Pasor Joel said in church today. We often magnify our fear instead of magnifying our faith in God. With God all things are possible. If God be for me, who dare be against me? These are quotes from the bible, unfortunately I don't recall the exact scriptures. Thank you for your wonderful comments. See you at work.
