Many times the New Testament encourages us to persevere and see things through to the end.  But there is a prior step.  The distance a person travels is not as important as the direction. A Sioux proverb says; “If you don’t know where you’re going, any path will take you there”.

Each one of us needs to settle on the direction of our life.  God’s call on us is to seek first the kingdom of God.  Paul in Philippians doesn’t just require us to rejoice, but to rejoice in the Lord.

• God needs to set the agenda of our lives,

• God needs to be at the head of our priorities and

• God needs to define what is right and wrong.

The choices we make and the things we do are windows into our soul.

• As people look through the windows of your life do they see the Lordship of Christ?

• When we rejoice, is it in the Lord?
