Part 7 – Today Is Tomorrow’s Yesterday
Make Your Future Bigger Than Your Past
Personal growth is a lifelong process that shapes the ultimate outcome of your experiences. However, your experiences result from how your internal mindsets and beliefs interact with external events. External events happen to everyone, but your experience is unique to you, shaped by the meaning your mind assigns to them.
Today's message will help put you on the path for personal growth that positions you for your unique purpose.
Discussion Questions To Ponder:
• Are you spending more time remembering who you were, explaining who you are, or preparing for who you could become?
• Which has the stronger hold on you: a past failure you cannot get beyond or a past success you keep returning to? How does it influence your choices today?
• What have you been calling “someday” that needs a place on your calendar? What makes getting started difficult?
• Who could benefit from your decision to grow? How might greater patience, courage, wisdom, or faithfulness affect your family and community?
• What do I need to develop in myself to support the goal I am asking God to help me pursue?
