Life Coach

There seems to be a new buzz phrase...some amongst the wealthy and privileged.
I have also heard it in terms of those suffering from trauma...especially during important developmental points in life.  
But when I heard a successful actress use the phrase on TV the other day..stating her "life coach" advised her to apologize to an individual (though she hadn't wronged that person,  at least not intentionally)
My thought...
Hey!  I have one!! THE One!  The only Life Coach we should depend on!
And He doesn't charge by the hour! (He only requires we love Him with all our heart, mind, soul and strength❤ and worth every bit!)


📖 “Keep my commands and follow them. I am the Lord.  Leviticus 22:31
📖 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9
Our Life Coach has given us a strategy book to follow ...full of direction,  encouragement, correction, wisdom, and more!
📖 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 
2 Timothy 3:16-17

Just as with anything in life we attempt, that we want to be productive, we have to be committed.

If we commit our life to the Lord, commit to reading His book and following what is in it, we will be better for it.  And have a healthier spirit! 
📖 And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,  fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.  Hebrews 12:1b-2a

And it will never be in vain....
📖 And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.  
Philippians 2:15b

Because the reward is far more than any earthly thing....
📖 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him James 1:12 ESV
the end of the race, the Crown is Eternal life with Our Coach, Jesus Himself!

It may seem difficult at first, hard to establish the habit...but give it a try.
Set aside time each day...specifically, to spend with your Coach and His book...make it a habit.
And remember we can even can talk to our Coach ..in prayer 24/7, 365  ad ifinitum! Once we make that commitment our Life Coach takes the job for eternity, our contract never ends! 

I am glad I have already SIGNED UP!
🙏My prayer is that you have made that commitment as well!

📖 but the Lord establishes their steps. Proverbs 16:9b
