“Small daily practices accrue over time and become transformative.”

“How do you eat an elephant?” You already know its meaning. But how many of us get frustrated with ourselves in the midst of our love for Jesus not matching our transformative obedience?

I raise my hand to that one. Yet why am I frustrated over something that is beyond my control? 1 John 3:2 states that being 100% like Jesus is an impossible goal…this side of heaven.

So, if you raised your hand, we both need to live out the 2%/100% rule. The only choice we have control over is the one that lies before us.

Therefore, lets focus on the small bite now or the 2% obedience gain of the moment. The Father, who already knows about the full day’s choices that we will make, has us 100% covered by His mercy and grace.

Focus on the small step of the moment. He’s got you covered.
