I was reading last night before I went to bed, "The Imitation of Christ" by Thomas a' Kempis. "Daily ought we to renew our purposes, and stir up ourselves to greater fervor, as though this were the first day of our conversion...According to our purpose shall be the success of our spiritual progress." (p.56&57) Isn't that beautiful? What a tragedy to lose our purpose in life! What a tragedy to be satisfied with just being mediocre. We must fight to be more Jesus Christ! We cannot let up on our goal...which is to further the kingdom of Christ in all we do.
