Plan Your Success Using God’s Plan

journey togetherWhat is the movement of success and victory in life? What is the final destination of my life? Why am I doing what I do with my life? What will be the success or victory of my life?

I learned as a child and strive to remember: “God made me to know, love and serve God in this life and to share in the eternal happiness of life with God in the world to come.”

This is the purpose of life, the direction of success and victory, and it determines satisfaction and happiness in this world as well as the next. If we order all that we plan and pursue to this purpose, we will have success and happiness in our endeavors.

Consider the overall scope of God’s plan: God, the eternal generation of life and love – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – creates mankind in the image and likeness of God, guides and teaches through the Word of God, joins mankind through the incarnation by the Son becoming man in Jesus, who suffers, dies, rises, returns to the Father, and bestows the Spirit, and calls us to return to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the source of life and love.

The scope of our plan needs to follow the same pattern: create to generate life and love, reveal the greatness and marvelous grandeur of the Creator, strive to teach and support the world in the ways of what is true and good, give one’s complete and total commitment without self-interest, and bestow a heritage that empowers further generation of life and love.

There is one truth, one life, one way to achieve the success and victory we seek – Jesus Christ. If we seek to embody the person of Jesus in how we live, we will enjoy success in every aspect of our being: spiritual, emotional, intellectual, social, familial, and even financial.

It is the purpose of this blog to relate the principles of faith in Christ to how we seek and pursue personal development and success in business and our way of life.
