DOG IT
Have you thanked Him?
Have you praised Him?
Have you made it your
priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?
Have you taken that deep
breath and listened for what He has for you today?
1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)
1-3The first thing I want you
to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.
“Get a good idea and stay
with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's done right. ” – WALT DISNEY
You might have guessed.
The family has sojourned to where it all started with a mouse.
But one of the things
I like looking for when we are down here are the little nuggets of wisdom from
Walt that they post around the parks. He was a visionary. Whether you
think all of the fuss over cartoon characters and princesses is superfluous or
silly, you can’t question that he did take an idea, dogged it and stayed with
it!
That brings me to today’s
thought.
If you are reading this today
it is likely you have had the idea to RECOVER or to follow Christ and that is a
GOOD IDEA!
So listen to WALT.
Dog that idea!
Work at it!
Be persistent!
Persevere!
Work at it until it is done right!
1 Timothy 4:8
…devotion to God helps you in
every way. It brings you blessings in this life and in the future life too.
A little more persistence, a
little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious
success.
Elbert Hubbard
Often in recovery we hear the
phrase…
“Don’t give up before the
miracle happens.”
For Walt his “miracle” was to
see visions like a MAGIC
KINGDOM
But they are deeply
more important.
Stay sober today.
Don't use today.
Walk in obedience to the
direction of GOD today.
Do the best you can with what
you have today.
Honor GOD with your
word and deed.
Be a blessing to
others.
No those visions are
seemingly not as lofty, but they are SO MUCH more valuable.
So take those ideas.
Dog them and WORK at them to get them right!
Colossians 3:23(TLB)
Work hard and cheerfully at
all you do, just as though you were working for the Lord…
Do that and things
will work out right.
Do that and wait for the
miracles. THEY will come!
“It always seems impossible
until it's done.” ― Nelson Mandela
“It's kind of fun to do the
impossible.” ― Walt Disney
I love you
all.
