Inspired to...?

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been inspired in my life.


It’s happened through watching someone perform at their very best… reading a profound passage in a book I came across… listening to a sermon from an anointed preacher… hearing how someone was able to become rich from following their passion…I could go on and on.

Yet inspiration in my life has taken a long time to put down roots and grow into positive change in my life. I’ve successfully accomplished a few goals I took on after being inspired, but if I had fully driven myself from all the inspirations I’ve received over the years… I might be on some Oprah type level right now.

It’s one thing to feel inspired. It’s a whole different story to be inspired.

What has inspired you in your life? Have you done anything positive because of it? Are you just feeling the inspiration for a moment and then continuing to live the same way?

Back in the day, many people were inspired by the lives of Jesus. They were so inspired that they went throughout their countries proclaiming His gospel, working miracles, and leading sinners to the cross.

Some men were inspired to write, and with their words, we have become witnesses to Christ’s love as well. Paul didn’t even personally know Jesus when He was on earth, yet Paul wound up writing a majority of our New Testament!

So we can’t just let inspiration slip through our fingers. We can’t sit idly by and dream about what we could do, who we could be, or where we could go.

Let’s go out and do it! Let’s go live our lives and inspire someone else.

God didn’t create us just to be spectators. We’ve got our own amazing story to live!

Verse of the Day: And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works… Hebrews 10:24
