Psalm 27:4-6 (NIV) One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock. Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me;
at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD.
2. Pursue Excellence:
(The parable of the 3 servants) Just like these three servants we also have been entrusted with gifts from God. God has left them in our hands, to be worked so they grow and increase and to be used for His glory. In the parable the first two servants work with what they have been given, and have more to show when the master returns. They are praised ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ But the third servant buries what he is given, because of his FEAR he does nothing with the talents. His master says to Him ‘You wicked, lazy servant!.... So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.'
(Excellence is not being the best, it's doing your best).
Be Blessed! (:
