Page 3 - GOALS PDF
P. 3
A good way to remember to set goals in your life is by the following
guide from the word ‘goals,’ as seen in the following 5 parts.
Collectively, this can be seen in this way:
GOALS means to:
GO OFFER APPRECIATION FOR LIFE IN THE SPIRIT
1-G is for GO
When you have GOOD thoughts, those thoughts then work through you
and express themselves outside of you. Not having good thoughts, you
wind up stuck somewhere. It’s like being stuck in the mud.
2-O is for OFFER
When you have good thoughts, those good thoughts lead us to OFFER
good actions. This is because thoughts create our beliefs. The Bible
says, “As a man thinks in his heart (what he believes) is who he is.” We
are also told that what we believe is what we speak, and thus live.
3-A is for APPRECIATE
When you have good thoughts that offer great beliefs, this allows us to
APPRECIATE what we have in us and flowing through us. The Bible talks
of ‘the abundant life of Christ,’ which is one of God’s many gifts to us.
4-L is for LIFE
This tells us that ‘LIFE is a journey’ More than it is a destination. Goals
keep you on track instead of getting side-lined by things that are not
important. Life is only a temporary assignment, and in some ways it is a
test as to what we do with it that is beneficial to ourselves and others.
