April 5 Devotion

Most of us wake up each day, and we have a pretty similar schedule to what happened the day before. Especially during the work week. We wake up. Get ready. Have breakfast. Head to work. Next day. Repeat. Often times, our weekends can also seem to be a routine. Even though we get caught in the rhythm of repeating ourselves, I still believe we always have an end goal in mind. We keep in focus why it is we’re doing what we are doing. Everything is geared towards the purpose. The reason we’re doing it.

Tonight is the beginning of Final Four weekend in Division I College basketball. The women play tonight. The men play tomorrow. This is the end of a long grinding season for everyone. The end goal is within reach for all of the teams playing this weekend. And that would be to win a championship. They have been working towards this for several months now. Practicing. Training. Conditioning. Over, and over, and over. I imagine most of the players have had very few, if any, days off. Pushing towards this end goal. The purpose for why they put themselves through all of what they have gone through.

Our spiritual life should also have an end goal in mind. Our spiritual life should have a purpose. Our purpose should be to serve God. We should live our lives daily like this. Routine or not, we should follow the plan that God has in place for us. We should take steps each day towards the purpose. Towards the end goal. Obviously, we want to spend eternity in heaven with our Lord and Savior. But while getting there, I believe we should spend our time trying to show others who he is. That should be our purpose. Worshiping him. And showing others who he is. Whether we’re going to work each day. Or we spending the weekends relaxing. The end goal should be our focus.
