We’ve talked about being unmotivated, but when you’re unmotivated, what do you do?? There’s always the struggle to deal with unmotivation and other short-term problems with short-term solutions, but what really we need are long-term solutions. In Matthew 7:13-14, Jesus challenges us to think long-term and follow Him down a path that is harder, but the only real long-term solution that leads to life. Short-term solutions are temporary, break down, and leave us wrecked.

Challenge: think long-term in your walk with God. Do you fix short-term problems with short-term solutions that are focused on you? Or are you going to God in prayer and pursuing Him in the Bible to find out His wisdom and His long-term solutions? It’s more difficult, but it’s so worth it to have God by your side!
