“Striving For Excellence”… No where in that statement does it say “Arrived at Excellence”. The road to excellence is a journey and God provides the necessary roadmap for the journey when He says,
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” Colossians 3:23
People can call you obsessive compulsive, passionate, annal, or any other term with a negative connotation but bottom line, if you are working with all your heart as unto the Lord and you are in pursuit of excellence you will find JOY.
Pearl Buck says it well…
“The secret of Joy in work is contained in one word-Excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.”
If you’re not enjoying your work perhaps you are working to gain mans approval rather than God’s. I challenge you to begin your journey toward excellence today!
