Paul B Thomas

False finish lines
Setting up camp around yesterdays revival instead of lighting todays fire around God’s present truth. Settling to be good at one thing when you could be great at many things. Looking for the latest conference and seminar when you should be hosting your own online conference and seminar. Associating with those that love what you say rather than finding the crowd that challenges what your say.
Going for what you have created rather than heading for that which God created for you. Abraham lived in a tent which he created yet went looking for a city whose maker and builder was God (Hebrews 11:9-10). God has to make your dream, be the author of it and the builder too, if you want to chase what he has created. Anything less is second best. Abraham was looking for that which God was also looking for. This should be our goal too.

Psalm 84:5 blessed is the man whose strength is in you who have set their hearts on pilgrimage (NIV). I don’t want the spirit of a settler I want the heart of a pioneer. How about you?

Paul.
