30 Day Course on Faith - Day 5

Faith and Clarity

Faith has more power when we are really clear about what we are asking for.  When we were debating whether or not we would move to Houston with my husband’s company, it came down to three things that we needed to have happen for the move to be a good option for us.  Once we defined what those three things were, the miracles started to happen!

[If you have 12 minutes, listen to this audio - "Setting Worthy Goals" by Earl Nightingale.]

Take a few minutes and write down a goal that is really important to you.  A goal that has the potential to really make a difference in the quality of your life over the next year, five years, or twenty years.  Would this goal improve your health over the next 20 years?  Your relationships?  Your ability to help others?

(Hint: Don't worry if you are worthy to have this goal -- YOU ARE!  Worry more about whether or not this goal is worthy of YOU!)

Now take a few minutes (you may have to think about this throughout the day and finish this exercise after you have had some time to contemplate your answer) to think of 3-5 things that will need to happen to achieve this goal.  These can be small or big, and they don’t have to be in your control.
