Understanding God Wants Us To Have Success In Life But He Also Wants To Get The Glory For All That He Allows Us To Achieve ...

What are you doing with this life God has given you?  Are you wasting it away or are you using it for His glory.   One definition for waste is to destroy or to consume away gradually.    It also means to fail or to neglect to use for its intended purpose.    Are you allowing your life to be used for the purpose God intended?   Are you being a vessel of love?   Are you encouraging others and leading them by example?   What are "you" doing with the life God has given you.  

It's easy to make excuses about where we are and what we are doing.   It's easy to look at others and pick out what they are or are not doing.  But we have to start looking internally.   We have to analyze our own actions and ambitions.   An ambition is an earnest desire to achieve something and it is the willingness to strive in order to obtain it.    What is your ambition directed towards?   Are you striving to achieve so that you can receive the accolades of man or so that you can receive the rewards of God?    Make sure you are not losing focus.   Understand, God will allow us to have success in life but we have to always make sure He is getting the glory for all that He has allowed us to do and to achieve.  

Take a moment to step back and to reflect on your life.   Make sure it is in alignment with God's Word, His will, and His way.     Make sure you are not wasting what He has given you.   The enemy is always out to desensitize you in a way where He drives you away from God and the things of God gradually.   Don't get caught in the enemy's net where you live a life of compromise.    Make sure your life is always being use for God's intended purpose.  Be His vessel and do what He has called you to do.  

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 1 Peter 4:11
King James Version (KJV)
If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
