MAKING THE BEST OUT OF LIFE (2)
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

So, another rare truth we must certainly know to make the very best out of our lives is “uncovering and dealing with our blind spots”. We all have blind spots. They are the things about us that we don’t know that are getting in our way to achieving our goals and fulfilling our purpose in life. This is one, too many reasons why many people are held bound from moving to the next level in life. Because we are so concentrated at dealing with the obstacles of the outside world, but it isn’t just the outside world that may interfere; we may also hold ourselves back without knowing it. So, as God is helping us, we throw more lights on this matter and proofer substantial approach to overcome it.
SCRIPTURE: … first get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye. (Matthew 7:5 NLT)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: This matter is the most neglected in life and yet the most difficult thing that people are yet to uncover. Many great men and women have been relegated to the background because of this matter. So, we don’t keep silent over it any longer. And these are the things we must do to overcome it. First, embark on a personal reflection. Take a moment just by yourself without distractions; recall an incident that didn’t go well with you, think deeply about your actions. Don’t try to judge or condemn yourself, don’t be ashamed or express any self-pity, but sincerely without reservations what do you feel about the incident?
Then now, go to God in prayer. Ask Him to help your life, to take away every known and unknown attitude that is holding your progression to the next level in life. Ask Him to lay them bare to you and for the grace to overcome them. If you have followed the above steps and the prayers; congratulations, for you are a step closer to making the best out of your life. We shall continue tomorrow with other truths, but till then, Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: The best, every man seeks, begins from him. If he can get it right with himself, the rest is just a story.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, ask God to lay bare to you every blind spot in your life and give you the grace to overcome them.
PRAYER: O LORD, help my life. Every area of my life that does not represent You, take it away from me, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and pray for other intentions as the Spirit leads)
PROPHETIC WORD: Receive the grace to overcome every blind spot in your life, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Matthew 7:5
