Accomplishments

What is it you want to accomplish, and why do you want to accomplish it?  Once you have reached your goal, if you do, what will you then have?  Where will you go then?

Take care that you are not driven by pride or the desire to be someone.  You are already someone.  Your accomplishments will not make you more someone than you already are.  Your worth is measured in how God sees you, not how man sees you, or even how you see yourself.  Man may be impressed by your accomplishments, but he will not be your judge.

What is it you want to accomplish, and more importantly, why?  To live up to ones potential is a worthy goal indeed.  But the wrong motive will tarnish each accomplishment and make it sound like a hollow drum rather than an orchestra.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
       and lean not on your own understanding;

 in all your ways acknowledge him,
       and he will make your paths straight.   Proverbs 3:5-6
