A Life That Wins
40 Day Devotional
A Unique Journey Toward Life Change
Have you ever made New Year’s resolutions or other life changing decisions, only to find yourself right back in the same rut that leaves you frustrated and feeling stuck?
When we fail to follow through on our decisions we end up frustrated, feeling like a failure, and plagued with the thought, “There must be more to life than this! When will I move beyond survival mode and start to thrive?”
If you can relate to this storyline then allow me to take you on a journey based on my own pilgrimage toward a winning life.
Transform Your Decisions
I’ll never forget where I was when the Holy Spirit impressed a thought on my heart. “It only takes a small decision to open a huge door!” I discovered that life is full of what I have come to call hinge decisions. These are small, specific, and Holy Spirit empowered decisions that usually fall into one of six domains of life:
Faith
Family
Fitness
Finances
Freedom
Future
A Life That Wins challenges you to make a hinge decision in one of these areas and then takes you on a journey to cultivate six essential qualities of a winning life. These qualities are:
- Your Decisiveness
- Your Drive
- Your Direction
- Your Discipline
- Your Dependency
- Your Dream
Do you want a life that wins?
