14 Aug Hopes & Habits (Because you can’t have uphill hopes and downhill habits)
Things are going to be different!
I’m going to lose that weight!
I’m going to get in shape!
My marriage is going to get better!
We are going to get out of debt!
My walk with God is going to grow!
All of these are valid and wonderful hopes!
However, you can have valid and wonderful uphill hopes, but if you have downhill habits you will always be going around the same mountain on a yearly basis!
Please allow me to share with you “Eight Habit Helpers”:
- Hope is not a strategy (Heb. 6:19).
Hope is important (see Prov. 13:12, Heb. 11:1) but it’s still not a strategy.
2. The things we do and the things we should do don’t always line up (Rom. 7:19).
Don’t feel bad this is mankind’s proverbial struggle. We all deal with this struggle (read Romans 7).
