Steps towards greatness

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14

My favorite basketball player is Kobe Bryant. No matter if you like him or not we can all learn from him. Kobe is known as having the best work ethic in basketball, no one works hard at perfecting their game than him. Something he said truly blessed me. When asked about his workout routine and what can others do to improve, he said "whatever plan you have stay consist and trust the plan" He is great not because he has one or two great games but he consistently plays great. He strives for greatness when he is alone working out, he strives for greatness when the pain seems too much to bear, he presses towards greatness by working everyday at his craft.

God has a plan for our lives if we consistently pursue it and trust God's plan we will become great at what God has for us to do. If you know what you are gifted in don't hold back strive for greatness. Your faith and hard work will pay off in the long run if you don't give up. Every step we take has to be aimed towards greatness. If you are a parent strive to be a great parent in Christ. If you are a business person strive to be a great business person in Christ. If you are a spouse strive to be the best spouse in Christ. If you are _________ stive to be a great ___________ in Christ. Let God show you what you are gifted in and strive to be great in those gifts. Every aspect in our lives we have room to improve let us strive for growth and become great at being ourselves.
