Good morning folks! 😊 FINISHING STRONG I must be about My Fathers business. Luke 2:49 If the word quit is part of your vocabulary, chances are that the word finish isnt. Finishing means staying on the job until its done. Its about accountability and action, because even when youre on the right track youll get run over if you just sit there. High achievers will tell you that life takes on meaning when you take responsibility for your actions and pursue your goals with purpose and passion. Nothing compares to the rush of crossing the finish line. The fact is, nobody remembers who finished second, except the guy who finished second! Co-authors B.J. Gallagher and Steve Ventura said the ten most important words in finishing strong are: 10: I wont wait for others to take the first step. 9:If it is to be, its up to me. 8: If not me, who? If not now, when? 7: Let me have a go at it. 6: I will not pass the buck. 5: You can count on me. 4: It IS my job. 3: Just do it! 2: I will. And the most important word: Me. Jesus was the greatest finisher of all time. At age twelve, He told His parents, I must be about My Fathers business. Later He told His disciples, I must work the works of Him who sent Me (John 9:4 NKJV). Facing the cross, He said, For this cause I was born (John 18:37 NKJV). And just before He died, He said, It is finished! (John 19:30 NIV). Then, having earned the right to become our advocate with God, He went back to heaven and sat down (Hebrews 10:12). Mission accomplished! So now its your turn, focus on finishing strong!
