PURPOSE BEGETS DISCIPLINE

If you remember one thing from the 1981 British film Chariots of Fire, it’s probably the iconic music played while a pack of runners glide alongside the ocean. But in terms of the film’s dialogue, there’s one line that stands out. Eric Liddell is being reprimanded by his sister for devoting his focus toward competitive running. Liddell responds, “I believe that God made me for a purpose... He made me fast, and when I run, I feel His pleasure".

Poised with purpose, and determination, Eric Lidell will go on to win several laurels for his country. And for God.

Today's motivation features a profound speech from John C. Maxwell about pursuing purpose and discipline.

"... it's the purpose that puts steal in the backbone of discipline"

"We are the light of the world". If we are to remain relevant as such, it will take discipline-- it will take the discipline of staying in "character" to pursue moral excellence.

But first we must know our purpose here-- we are the light! It is the character of light to simply shine. So shine. Let's shine.
