Motivation To Excellence.

Dear Beloved, I pray that this message reaches you in good health and high spirits. The beauty of faith lies in the journey we embark upon with Christ, striving for excellence in all we do in His name. As we navigate this life, let these scriptures remind you of your divine mission.

Philippians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

This powerful scripture reminds us that our strength comes from Christ. He is the source of our ability, the wellspring of our courage, and the rock upon which our confidence is built. No matter what challenges you face, remember that Christ is with you, empowering you to do all things.

Colossians 3:23-24 - "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

This scripture guides us to approach everything we do with a servant's heart, working not for the applause of humans but for the glory of God. Your work is a form of worship. Excellence, then, becomes a devotion, a testament of your faith, and an offering to Christ.

1 Corinthians 15:58 - "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."

In moments of discouragement or weariness, remember these words. Stand firm in your faith, and know your work for the Lord is never in vain. Your efforts and sacrifices have an eternal value that transcends earthly understanding.

Hebrews 12:1-2 - "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith."

The Christian journey isn't always smooth; it's a race that demands perseverance. The secret to running this race well is fixing our eyes on Jesus, our ultimate example of faith and excellence. Draw inspiration from His life and teachings, and strive to emulate His commitment to serving others.

In conclusion, my dear brothers and sisters, strive for excellence not for worldly recognition but to glorify God in everything you do. Use Christ's strength, work with all your heart, stand firm in your faith, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ guide you as you strive for excellence in your journey of faith.

In His Service,

Terry
