Habits that create

Don’t put other people in the place of God.  

Don’t put pressure on anyone to be God.  

If God is not first in your life, He is not in your life.  

We are what we repetitively do. 

We form habits.  

Then, they form us.  

What we starve dies.  

What we feed thrives.  

Be careful about what you see and hear.  

I’ll never change my life until I change something I do every day.  

Don’t try to fix people.  

We are called to love them as God has loved us.  God didn’t call us to be right but effective.  

Realize the power of your words.  

Live a life that draws people to you, so you can lead them to God.  

Reach people by meeting needs and adding value.   We are drawn to people who encourage.  

If you criticize, you will repel people.  

You can’t spread light if you are talking darkness.  People need to know that we believe in them.  People need our affirmation.  They are desperate for it.   

Jesus didn’t come to make bad people good, but dead people alive.
