What is your vision............?

What is your vision................? 

 

To have a vision for your life is to see where you could be, not where you are now. Great bible heroes move people not by what they see today, but by what they see as the future. Your vision may result in traveling down a different road than your friends. Many bible commentators have clearly defined "vision" statements. These statements allow the believers and Christian leaders to keep up the hope and what it wants to achieve. Do you know what you want, and where you are going? A personal vision statement allows you to look forward to the future with positive expectations for yourself. Before you write your vision statement, think of it as a high level statement about what you want from life. It is a statement, one to two lines at the most. From your vision statement you can then set your goals. Many people set goals but forget about the vision statement. Writing your own vision statement gives you a high level statement and will help keep you focused as you then think about setting your goals. As W. Clement Stone once said, "The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision." You can also think about your vision statement as what you are dreaming or wishing for. Joseph Campbell's quote summarizes this thought well when he said, "A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. A Vision is what specifically you intend to make happen. Visions and goals should be just out of your present reach but not out of sight.

 

Promise for the Day: Where there is no vision, the people perish….. Proverbs: 29:18 (NKJV)
