Consistancy

This is a word I use a lot in the coaching world and even with my own children.  This one word is what separates a lot of athletes in the world of sports.  An athlete’s ability to perform at a high level over and over again is the biggest factor in determining success and level of play.  There are a lot of one hit wonders and even they did it for a little while type players, but the players that are remembered the most have made it a lifestyle to perform at a very elite level.  Consistency is also a big factor in what separates a lot of us in the Christian world as well.

Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

I don’t know about you but that sounds pretty consistent to me.  I know I am preaching to the choir on this one, but how many times do we fall short on the consistency in our daily walk with Christ.  It is very easy to skip a day in the Word because we are too busy, or cut prayer time short or out because we have something to do.  I challenge you to write down and make a commitment to an amount of time in the Word and in prayer each day and track it for a while.  See where you are with your consistency in your time with God.  If nothing else, writing it down and then knowing that you are achieving it will give you some encouragement or maybe open your eyes to areas you can improve on!

Be blessed
