Goals, goals, goals, you hear about them everywhere, especially at the beginning of the year. All year long, it seems that TV infomercials have the solutions for their goals.

Whether you want to lose weight, increase your finances, or create a book about God’s presence in your life, generally all you have to do is follow these three steps. Look at them.

Step 1. Determine what you want to do (your goal)

What is your goal? Is it to lose weight, increase your finances, or create a spiritual legacy? Most of us have the first two goals at some point in our lives.

However, fewer will feel the call or desire to create a scrapbook about their faith.

But the Bible tells us, “But be careful! Be very careful never to forget what you have seen the LORD do for you. Do not let these things slip from your mind while you live! And be sure to pass them on. To his children and grandchildren “. Deuteronomy 4: 9 (New Living Translation)

Since you are reading this article, you probably want to pass on to your children and grandchildren the things that God has done in your life. You want to create your spiritual legacy to influence the lives of your loved ones and those who will follow you.

Your goals can include:

* Creation of a scrapbook about the scriptures.

* Assembling a Christmas book

* Creation of a travel scrapbook.

* Make designs that include stories of faith in your life.

* Combine images, scriptures, prayers and stories of faith.

Step # 2 Decide how to do it

Think about your goals. What are the ways you can achieve them? For the goals of losing weight or increasing your finances, you can start by Googling your area of ​​interest.

When creating a scrapbook about your Christian faith, you can start the same way. Look up specific scripts via http://www.BibleStudyTools.com.

Once you have collected your information, you are ready to act.

Step # 3 Take action

To achieve any goal, we have to act.

It’s almost embarrassing how many “fitness” DVDs I’ve compiled over the years. Notice the word “collected”. Without using these videos, they are worthless. They just collect dust.

Maybe you think you found the answer to be healthier. You requested “Healthy-Me Product”. When she arrives, she starts wearing the “Healthy-Me” kit, rubs the “Healthy-Me” cream on her body, and reads the “Healthy-Me” diet book.

Well, that may be a bit silly. But this little example describes how to act. However, if you are like me, maybe at some point in your life you bought an item and never used it. You never took action on your goal for that product.

Let’s face it, sometimes getting started is the hard part.

I found one thing that helps me: pray before starting my project.

When creating the physical book, you can start by selecting the photos you want to use, or the special writing, or writing a story about something that you know God did in your life.

So now when you’re all in prayer, put one foot in front of the other and take action!
