Our 24 ounce big ol' gulp of daily success

Scripture:
“For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:5-9 ESV


Application:
Say we have a 24 ounce cup that we’re free to fill with any beverage we want. What would we do? Try this recipe:

• 8 ounces of water to purify and repair
• 8 ounces of nutritious fresh fruits and veggies for development and energy
• 4 ounces of fiber to bind it all together
• 4 ounces of any tasty flavor

That 24 ounce drink is our day:

• Rest (purification and repair). Target 8 hours
• Career and serving others (development and energizing). Target 8 hours
• Bonding (relationships with our families and friends). Target 4 hours
• Flavor (Have fun and enjoy the blessings God has given us). Target 4 hours

Mix, and take a big gulp every day.


Prayer:
Lord Jesus, teach us to be better every day at being more like You. Amen.
