From Goal to Habit to Pattern of Living
Some of my New Years’ resolutions have become patterns of living.
We have a million dreams in our heads of who we want to be.
But what is God’s heart for me? To know His will, I dive into His Word, learning that God teaches me my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, I am to honor my parents, he blesses hard work, and He desires unity in relationships.
Having a biblical foundation for my goals, gives me confidence that He will help me.
I start with Measurable Goals.
Once I make measurable goals, I begin. God is for me not against me. He will help me to be faithful if I draw from His strength.
I like to Start Small and build. For example, I start with reading the Bible 5 minutes a day and build up to 30 minutes over a years’ time. That way I don’t crash and burn.
If you are like me, and I hope you’re not, the early weeks will be full of more failure than success. However, I just refuse to give up.
Perseverance is key to building up habit, so no matter how many times you blow it, don’t give up!
Over a long period of time, habits become patterns in your life.
