Don't allow your life to become dull ………

The famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed many beautiful buildings, homes and other magnificent structures. Toward the end of his career, a reporter asked him, "Of your many beautiful designs, which one is your favorite?" Frank immediately answered, "My next one." Frank understood the principle of stretching, constantly pressing forward, never being satisfied simple with past successes. The entire world is waiting for your next adventure. Too many people are living far below their potential. They have many gifts, talents, and so much more going for them. But they've gotten comfortable, settled where they are, and lately become too easily satisfied. We often hear people making excuses for stagnating in their personal growth: "I've achieved as much as most." "Compared to other people, I'm doing pretty well in my career." I've gotten as far as my parents did ". That's great, but God wants you to go further. He's a progressive God, and he wants every generation to be increasing in happiness, success and significance. No matter where we are in life, God has more in store. He never wants us to quit growing. We should always be reaching for new heights in our abilities, in our spiritual walk, in our finances, careers, and personal relationships. We all have areas where we can come up higher. We may have achieved a certain level of success, but there are always new challenges, other mountains to climb. There are new dreams and goals that we can pursue. No doubt, God has already done a lot in your past. He's opened doors for you that nobody else can open. Maybe He's given you a wonderful family and home, perhaps he's caused you to be promoted, given you favor with employer. He may have done wonders in past, but you haven't seen anything yet! The best is yet to come. Don't allow your life to become dull. Keep dreaming, hoping and planning for the new projects, experiences and adventures with God.
