Practice to Perform

My sister used to coach a girls cross country team and one of the things she stressed was this: How you practice is how you will perform. That’s true in every area of our lives. I remember when God was teaching Joyce Meyers about the “little daily” things, He dealt with her about leaving her shopping cart in the parking lot instead of putting it where it belonged. Let’s face it, God is a God of order even when it comes to shopping carts. If we think we can slide by and do just enough, we’re not only selling the world short but we’re selling ourselves short. You and I were made to reflect the King of kings and the Lord of lords. If we show the world we do sloppy work, trust me…we will come to a messy end! The world is looking for someone who not only speaks about Jesus, but lives a life that reflects Him fully. So let’s get our running shoes on and step up our game! Excellence all the way!
