Why Settle for Mediocrity?
by PamFord Davis

Are you up to facing each day’s responsibilities and challenges?

Survival mode can easily ensnare us; unknowingly, we mechanically repeat routines. Why do we settle for mediocrity? God offers so much more.

"A thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But I came to give life-life that is full and good (John 10:10 ERV).

Apostle Paul definitely didn’t live in the lap of luxury; his four walls were often within a prison cell. Many countrymen rejected Paul’s messages and brethren often misunderstood his methods. He had plenty of reasons to gripe and complain but his life serves as a lasting example of rejoicing and fulfillment.

He found the reason for living.

Paul rejoiced in a personal relationship with his Master.

“And I pray that you and all God’s holy people will have the power to understand the greatness of Christ’s love—how wide, how long, how high, and how deep that love is. Christ’s love is greater than anyone can ever know, but I pray that you will be able to know that love. Then you can be filled with everything God has for you.

With God’s power working in us, he can do much, much more than anything we can ask or think of.  To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus for all time, forever and ever. Amen (Ephesians 3:18-21 ERV).”
