For Your Glory

Amazing song by Decemberadio and one that came to my mind this morning on my run.

When I was in High School I was the fastest runner in my class. One day we were running and instead of having the attitude of 'I am gonna run from my problems', I said 'I am gonna run to God'. That day I ran the mile in 7.02 minutes, A record I have yet to break. This isn't about setting records or running, just follow me on this.

That change in attitude is what had me more positive results and I am sure of it. When we do anything for God and for HIS glory not for our own selfish needs, ever notice the difference in your results? That one day I got so much praise from my teacher and classmates...they were in shock, and my attitude when back to selfish needs. I wanted more of that praise I wanted to be the best...and my time got worse and worse over the years.

The mindset of God will take us further than our dreams ever will. His dreams for us are always sweeter than our own. Take Mondays for example...Wake up with the attitude of Oh God it's Monday lets just get it over with, we've hindered God already and the blessings He has in store for the day. Wake up and say Good morning God it's Monday lets get this started! I guarantee you weather it's monday or whatever day, our Attitudes determine our outcomes. This sort of ties in with the power of our words...but I thought I'd share with you guys.

Don't make it hard either it's really simple...everything you do do for God's glory. It's all in your attitude...Positive Attitudes = Positive Outcomes...Try it. Our day to day jobs whether it's working in a nice cozy office or cleaning sewers...do it for God's glory and you will be blessed. People are always watching and they'll catch on, this stuff is contagious. ;)
