How do you define success? I have made the mistake in the past to take what God has asked me to do and add to it. You would think that doing more than what God asks, would be a good thing but it is disobedience. Putting my own spin on things to make them what I want them to be is the same as not doing what God asked me to at all. I have to learned to understand what God wants me to do and then do just that. If He wants more, He'll let me know. We must break away from defining our success by what the world considers success and be faithful obeyers of our Lord.
God measures our success with the yardsticks of obedience, faithfulness, and righteousness.

Have a great day obeying our Lord and Savior
