In a recent post I challenged everyone at Journey to seek God’s wisdom with regards to a Personal Growth and DevelopmentPlan for 2010. Click on that link and you can watch a video about same and near the bottom of the page you can download a template for building one.

Yesterday I talked about the concept of CLARITY – Click Here to view post.

What is movement when it comes to seeking God’s plans for our life?

When talking about movement it might be better to think about the opposite of movement – Congestion – not a good thing.

Sinuses congested – can’t breath

Heart – cholesterol – heart attack.

Traffic jam = no movement  and much frustration as you try to reach your destination.

Movement is important towards reaching our goals and living out God’s purposes for our lives.

Think about the typical new years resolution – Mine a year ago was to get my weight down to 175 pounds. A very clear goal – probably an attainable goal with discipline. But if I don’t start eating right, going to the gym, etc there is no movement – no movement means no progress.

So to reach God’s goals for our lives we need to remove congestion points.

A key to success is being intentional – Intentionally focused on God’s purposes so our yes’ can be yes and our no’s no.

2^nd key is incremental – If it took you 10 years to put on that weight, chances are you are not going to lose it all in one month – takes small steps – skip bad snacks, exercise more

As January approaches I want to challenge everyone in a few areas.

1) Take us up on the one year bible challenge – There are many posts here about same.

2) Begin to prepare your hears for the 21 day season of prayer and fasting that is to begin Jan 10th. Ask God to tell you how he would like you to fast. Click here for details regarding same.

3) Develop a personal growth plan for 2010..
