7. I will continually express my gratitude to my
heavenly Father for His goodness and mercy.
Corresponding Blessing:
As my awareness and gratitude for His goodness and mercy grows, my desire
to please him intensifies. This becomes evident in heightened love for
those around me.
8. I will constantly hold before me the biblical
truth that the central purpose of a Christian life is to be an obedient
disciple and to make disciples by teaching obedience of all that Jesus
commanded.
Corresponding Blessing:
Understanding the central purpose of a Christian life [being obedient and
teaching obedience to Jesus' commandments] gives me direction, purpose and
the answer to life's three major questions: Where did I come from? Why am
I here? And where am I going? My life becomes significant.
9. I will be engaged in prayer through the day and
submit to a regular discipline of fasting as the Spirit of the Lord leads
me.
Corresponding Blessing:
Through prayer, I am in direct, loving communication with my heavenly
Father. I learn that in the quiet moments of prayer he leads me. I am
overwhelmed and comforted by the knowledge that I serve a prayer-answering
God.
As I become an obedient
disciple, I am moved by the commitment that to build A Christ-Centered,
Disciple-Making Church, I personally must honor the Kingdom-building work
of EACH ONE, BRING ONE, EACH YEAR.
