What Is Success?
“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:2
You’ve heard it said, “The one who dies with the most toys wins.” Is that success? Having your dreams come true? Getting all you want? Earning enough money so that you never have to work again?
May I tell you what success is? And I say this without equivocation. Success is the progressive realization of the will of God for your life. That’s what it is.
It’s not how much money you have. It’s not how famous you are. It’s not how healthy you are. It’s not how many friends you have or how many toys you have acquired. Success is nothing more, nothing less, than the progressive realization of the will of God for your life.
Do you want to know God’s will? Do you want your heart’s desire to come true?

Amen!
Might I add that I have found success is living out in obedience the will of God for your life.
Obedience is greater than sacrifice!

'Obedience' is sooo critical to our relationship with Christ~
'Obedience' means we have an inward and outward relationship with Christ~
'Obedience' brings joy in our lives--not the kind of joy this world has to offer~
'Obedience' is seeing Christ through us to the world~
No one has seen God the Father, but the world can see Christ through us!
