Great Goals, Great Sacrifice

The only thing free in this world is salvation from God through Jesus Christ, and that one’s free because Jesus paid the price on the cross. Eliezer had to pay a price to get Rebekah to come back with him and marry Isaac. Genesis 24:53 says, “Then he brought out gold and silver and articles of clothing and gave them to Rebekah; he also gave expensive gifts to her brother and her mother.” Great goals require great sacrifice. If you are serious about getting a focused life, you need to ask three questions:
1) What will it cost?
2) What am I willing to give?
3) Is it worth it?

The greatest use of your life is to invest it in something that will outlast it. Jesus said, “What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” (Mark 8:36 NIV) Don’t begin working toward your goals until you’ve counted the cost.

I pray that God will help you get a clear vision of what he wants you to be and do. And I pray that the rest of your life includes the best years of your life.

Be Specific About Your Future

In order to get to where you want to be, you need to describe exactly what you want. For instance, Abraham told Eliezer exactly what kind of wife he wanted for Isaac. He told him to go back to the land of his relatives instead of picking Isaac’s wife from among the Canaanite women.

You will never reach a vague goal. The more general it is, the less power it has. But the more specific it is, the more power it has in your life. Ask yourself these four questions: 1) What do I want to be? 2) What do I want to do? 3) What do I want to have? 4) Why do I want it? You can’t just know the what, you need to know the why - that’s your motivation.

If you don’t know why, you will give up when it gets tough. When Eliezer heard Abraham’s goal, he started asking “What if?” If you listen to the what-ifs of your goal, you will fail because of worry and fear. You don’t need to focus on the how for now because, once you figure out the why, God will show you how.

He will help you solve the problems that stand in the way of your goal.
