January 29, 2015 - BE DISCIPLINED


To be disciplined according to google is showing a controlled form of behavior or way of working. Discipline is one scarce commodity on earth today. One common attribute of great people is that they are very disciplined. Simply wanting to fulfill God’s will for our lives is not enough. It is discipline, not just desire, which determines your destiny and mine. Without discipline, the distractions of life interfere with our God-given destiny. 

One sign of discipline is to live by a schedule, setting your priorities for each day and following through with them. Many of us live life as it comes. This way, we have become a dumping ground for every Dick and Harry. When you do not set priorities, others set for you and you end up helping others fulfil purpose while yours is left unattended to.

You would agree with me that the same 24 hours available unto the rich is the same for the poor, what we do with it is what makes the difference. Jesus was so disciplined that even when His father and mother came to see him in the temple, He told them he was busy. Spend your time and energy wisely, you might never be able to recover them.

Be wise!
