Turning Stale

Church Planters School #2

Have you ever wondered why so many businessmen, pastors or priests start off on tract and on mission but get off tract off base and out of control? Have you ever wondered why so many people start off following Jesus but fade away? It's kind of like our favorite 2-liter; we open it up and watch the game however the next day it's lost it's fizz.

Thought of the Day: "Many are called but few are chosen." (Matthew 20:16 & 22:14)

God has called many great business men & women, doctors, CEO's pastors, missionaries and world changers but few ever accomplish it? The bridge from being called to chosen is "faithfulness" (Revelation 17:14)

It is far to easy to quit when the things get hard and go wrong. It's easy to give up when things start to become challenging. But those that are chosen and become successful have learned one thing...perseverance. NEVER GIVE UP. DO WHAT YOU ARE CALLED TO DO and stick with it.

Question of the day: What is hard and challenging in your life right now?

Determine not to quit!
