By nature I’m a risk-taker. I’m not one to sit and let the “grass grow under my feet.” Although this attitude has its benefits, it also has its downfalls. Too many times I’ve taken shots in the dark. I’ve wasted resources because of risks taken without proper clarity. I’m asking the Lord for a greater clarity of spiritual sight. I’m asking Him to reveal to me the personal adjustments that I need to apply in order to bring me to a greater capacity of clarity.
Clarity in direction is paramount. Clarity in focus is imperative. And clarity without proper spiritual sight is impossible. Clarity absent of uncertainty is nonsense, for the clarity in which I speak of is not of natural sight but of faith.
This weekend I will share a bit about clarity and sight during our IMPACT INITIATIVE service. God has given us three kinds of sight: hindsight, insight, and foresight. God has set us apart from the rest of creation; He’s given us the ability to look back, look in, and look ahead. This is clarity at its optimum and thus, my prayer for 2011. I refuse to walk blind.
What about you? What’s your take on the focus and direction of your life?
