Silent Time

What are your goals and targets?

Some people achieve a lot, climb up the hierarchies and become successful in such a sense.

Others can manage a lot of tasks within the 24 available hours per day.

But to come to the father – is that a goal?

Following the foot steps - what does it mean?

In order to be successful in life – do we need to compromise the word of God?

It may seem like that at times.

But if we take a deeper look at how we define “successful”, things can be different to the obvious.

What do you think - are we close to the end of the world? Or will life as we know it go on for many more centuries?

Both sides have their arguments.

One thing is clear and much more important.

Let’s hold out.

It is good to give compliments as well as to receive them.

But if we are honest, that is only one side of life, there are also so many shortcomings.

For certain tasks, mechanics need to protect their body, for example the welder needs to wear special glasses to protect the eyes.

As we protect the apple of our eyes, so God protects each one of our souls, even if life’s circumstances seem to suggest the opposite.

Joshua got a big task. It seemed to be too difficult.

Do you also know such situations? It may look like there are too many challenges and difficulties in life.

Yet there is one reason not to give up, rather to be determined and confident.

His own people did not receive him.

How about us today?

What is your experience with covenants?

On what we set our eyes, we also set our mind, we fix our attention on that matter or thing.

On what do you set your eyes? Our focus might be on a better job or on a better place to live.

Do you focus on the past or on the future?
