How easy it is to touch the things that destroy our purity and our sense of being a treasured possession of God. Personal purity is a worthy goal that can be achieved. When purity before God becomes a life choice we put ourselves in a position for supernatural things to occur in our lives. We put ourselves in a position for God to do great things through our daily lives. We help position others to accomplish great things in their lives. Purity is not only the absence of those things that should not be in our lives but also the fullness of things that ought to be in our lives for the glory of God and the benefit of others. Personal purity when realized becomes the source of amazing confidence and availability for Christ.

It's just too easy to fill our lives with complexity and intensity. To accept responsibility God never intended for us to embrace, to fill our lives with pressures He never intended for us to have. Simplicity is the act of eliminating the unnecessary and pursuing the most important. Impatience with anything that has the potential to distract, drain or misdirect us from our primary task, to glorify God with our every breath should be a daily attitude.

How full is your life or how much smaller has your life become? One of the most enriching choices we can make in life is to learn to allow the right people into our lives:

1. People that are behind us in life that we can help to challenge and help to step up to become better.

2. People that are right where we are and that we can relate to and celebrate the things we have in common.

3. People who are further ahead of us in life and who can challenge us and help show us the way to become better.

Very often those people are placed into our lives by God and we are unaware of what He wants to accomplish through them and us. It is our duty and opportunity to be ever aware and available to the people God wants in our lives.

Someone said, “Imposed change is opposed change”. Resistance to change is very often the driving force in people's lives. Change is constantly occurring in our lives, very often without our even being aware that it is happening. The change we are most sensitive to experiencing is the change that challenges us the most. Avoiding change is an illusion, accommodating change is unavoidable accepting change is necessary.
