Having faith and setting goals go hand in hand, but faith in the accomplishment of our goals should be our focus. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. As Jesus spoke to His disciples, so He speaks to us. Jesus did not say this is a new request I give you, but rather a command. Think about the difference this little verse could make if we apply to our lives daily.
History is our greatest teacher.
When we study the past, our decisions for the present are usually more rational. The greatest history book ever written is the Bible. It's pages are filled with wisdom and guidance. There's more contained in each chapter than anyone can grasp with only one reading. The key is, as it is with any good book, you have to read it to learn, and to realize the hope that is within each page.
