10,000 Reasons - It's Not About the List
SET an errand, an overwhelming one at that, something is being constrained into my character - to look for, to seek out, to investigate as the Spirit beseeches, to lay hands on, and to accomplish, appreciation.
One hundred purposes behind one hundred days - 100 x 100 = 10,000
To discover 10,000 Reasons where I'm appreciative to God for His decency can appear a useless exercise expending so much time - presumably a few hundred hours will be contributed. About two entire long stretches of exertion over a three-and-a-half-month time span. Be that as it may, it's not about the rundown. Not by any stretch of the imagination. The rundown is an unfortunate obligation.
Consider what God could be accomplishing in me as I agree to His ask.
He wishes to complete a work in me, and I should simply allow Him consent and access.
That is discipleship. It's the bludgeon of impact the Lord needs to have in and through our lives. Christ's asking through the Holy Spirit is constantly about the closures of Him who lives in us who cherish through Him. The strategy is insignificant, even superfluous, insofar as it is heavenly - separate to Him. God is intrinsically inspired by me and in the 'me' in you.
It's the manner by which God identifies with us; about how we relate with ourselves.
The rundown is about this, as an end: a change in perspective where every single unholy idea are constrained into expulsion, where, to an ever increasing extent, God has His direction. Where His central goal looks for satisfaction through me.
Protestation can't flourish while my mind consumes to be thankful. I require appreciation since I gripe. Tension crashes and burns when I'm excessively caught up with being appreciative, making it impossible to fuss. I require appreciation since I get restless. Disappointment hasn't a possibility when I see I'm getting behind my amount. I require appreciation since I get disappointed. Qualification is an undeniable habit when God continues giving hundreds over many motivations to be grateful. I require appreciation since I feel entitled on occasion.
The greater obligation I take for infusing bliss into my life, the more opportunity I appreciate. The less space I make for what is profane, the more God swells what is going in. The more appreciative I can be, the more persistence and humble I am.
It's not about the rundown. It's about what the rundown is doing in me as I aggregate it.
