Personal Achievement vs. Personnal Commitment to Live for God

It is not personal achievement but personal commitment to live for God that is important. Achievements are simply examples of what God can do through someone's life. The most effective leaders spoken in the Bible had little awareness of the impact their lives had on others. They were too busy obeying God to keep track of their successes.

Read about Ezra to learn about the following:

  1. committed to study, follow, and teach God's Word
  2. concerned about keeping the details of God's commands
A person's willingness to know and practice God's Word will have a direct effect on how God uses his or her life.

The starting place for serving God is a personal commitment to serve him today, even before knowing what that service will be.......
