That’s right, you heard me! Don’t settle for mediocrity! It’s too easy to settle into routines, ruts, and habits that take all of the energy and creativity from us. We get into patterns of behavior and patterns of thinking where we no longer allow ourselves to be challenged, or stretched. Have you grown comfortable in what you’re doing? Have you given up reading, going to conferences, learning from mentors, trying new things?

Don’t be mediocre! Don’t settle for average! Don’t just drag along spinning your wheels on endless, meaningless tasks that are taking you nowhere. Surrender yourself anew and afresh to God! He placed gifts and talents within you for His glory. He has filled you with His Spirit so that you might accomplish His purposes in your life. Let your faith grow! Let God stretch you! Get out of your comfort zone and put some risk into your service and devotion for God! You weren’t meant to be a “turkey”, you were created “to soar like an eagle”! Remember the risen Christ lives in you, if you have trusted Him with your life. Let Him direct your steps and take you where you need to be! His plan is always best!

“…whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31
