RULES FOR LIFE
Three basic rules to guide your life.
- Know and understand your present condition.
- Discover and resolve your past condition.
- Plan and prepare your future condition.
If you don’t know who you are, it is impossible to know where you have been, where you are, or where you are going.
It was said of Christopher Columbus, when he sailed for America he did not know where he was going; when he got there he didn’t know where he was; when he got home he didn’t know where he had been.
When you can answer these three questions with crystal clear clarity you are now ready to live in freedom, in gratitude, in hope, and with passion.
Jesus used parables to teach complicated truths because these life skills were only for those who approached Him with sincerity and a commitment to live them out.
The same goes for these three life rules, they are reserved only for those who are sincere and committed to living them out in their daily lives.
With advise givers to cancer victims, everyone seems to have a solution; like in basketball, everyone seems to think they know how to coach the game. Did you discover, understand, and apply that solution with success? Many will give you solutions but only you and you alone can truly find the answers for your life.
The one thing that I can say with great certainty and precision is that the answers are found in the greatest book ever written because I believe it is a manual for living life to the max.
Conclusion:
Show me an area of your life in which you are having success and I will show you where you were following biblical principles. Show me any part or your life where you are failing and I will show you where you were violating a biblical principle.
