Successful
Living
"If your gift is to
encourage others, do it! If you have money, share it generously. If God has
given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have
a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly. Don't just pretend that you
love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Stand on the side of the
good. Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each
other. Never be lazy in your work."
Marshall Field, quoted in Predictions & Prescriptions newsletter, gives twelve points to remember for successful living:
1. The value of time
2. The success of perseverance
3. The pleasure of working
4. The dignity of simplicity
5. The worth of character
6. The power of kindness
7. The influence of example
8. The obligation of duty
9. The wisdom of economy
10. The virtue of patience
11. The improvement of talent
12. The joy of originating
All of the above are excellent, but the best advice for successful living is still to be kind, be diligent, do all the good you can, love one another, and above all, don't forget God; and serve him enthusiastically.

Dear God,

that my life will model
what it means to be truly
successful
(in your view)
Thank you for hearing and
answering my prayer.
