Maximizing your life
August 17, 2010
I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
--Romans 12:1
I want to remind you of something that's of critical importance: This is your life!
Your life had a beginning in your mother's womb that was ordained by God, and someday your life will have an end... and God willing, there will be thousands of days in between.
But it's how you live your life over the course of those days that is of utmost importance. Life demands your complete focus on God.
I'm reminded of when I played college baseball and the coach would say, "Wait for your pitch... watch for it! And when it comes, you swing with everything you've got!" So that's what I'm saying to you today, "Don't miss your pitch!" This is your life; don't miss what God has for you!
There are so many people who live their lives just punching the clock in and out and they never pause long enough to ask, "What is my life to be about?"
We need to be fully engaged in living our lives for Christ Jesus. In fact, we ought to live in such a way that when we die, the evil one says, "Whew, glad that one's gone!"
Present your body to God for his service. Let it be your foremost goal to make a difference for Christ, and you'll have a life well lived.
THIS IS YOUR LIFE; DON'T MISS WHAT GOD HAS FOR YOU!

Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out
Dear Friend,
Do the words rested... peaceful... and refreshed describe you today? Or do the words stressed... rushed... and pressured better describe your way of life?
If you're like most Christians, you'd probably have to admit those last three words more accurately describe your life most of the time!
The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way... even when your life is one big pressure-cooker. And in my new book, Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out, I'll show you why.
Based on the principles from Paul's letter to the Philippians and Psalm 23, Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out will help you find true peace and rest in a world that is anything but peaceful and restful. It's the perfect "pause" button you need!
So please request your copy of Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out when you give online today! --Jack Graham
