It's easy to get off track. Our day to day activities put a demand on our time but we have to make up in our mind that nothing and no one will ever come before God and what He has told us to do. We have to remember that what God is telling us to do for Him is for the betterment of our lives and the lives of others. The word betterment means to make something better. It means to improve and to advance. God wants us to advance in every area of our lives. When we advance in life, we move forward with purpose.
Think about what it means to have purpose in life. When you understand your purpose in life, you know why you are doing what you are doing. Your life has meaning because you understand God's design and intent for your life. We have to understand that we were created to worship, praise, and to bring glory to God. Is that what you are doing with your life? When others look at you, can they see God working in you and through you?
Understand God has a plan but He has given you a choice. The question is, will you trust Him to fulfill His plan in your life or will you get off track following your own directives. In most cases, our own directives are based on what our flesh wants and not what God wants. Make up your mind that you are going to stay on track with God.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Galatians 5:16
[This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
