Standards and Grace

Listen to the Podcast

Here is today's communion meditation.

 Recently I was having a conversation with a friend about how some leaders have exceptionally high standards for excellence, but sometimes these high standards can come with a lot of pressure on themselves and others. Having high standards for excellence is a good thing but they must be balanced with a lot of grace to take the pressure off. 

God is the perfect example of this. He has a standard that none of us can keep, and he won't change it for anyone, but he is also gentle, patient, and full of grace and truth.  

In today's communion we are asking God to help us become more like him in setting higher standards for our lives and balancing it with a lot of grace so that the pressure is off. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Standards are important for our health and fitness. To reach new levels me must set higher standards while also giving ourselves grace. 

I am praying for you.
