Day 323: I am a project manager, and as such I am a firm believer in good planning before running of to execute. Every large project should have a charter that includes the direction, problem to be solved, objectives, assumptions, and scope at a minimum. This lays a good foundation for the project, provides clear direction and the ability to gauge success, as well as preventing scope creep.
Tonight I was listening to 1 Corinthians while I was doing something, and I was struck by the verse that talked about our foundation, Jesus Christ. Just like with a project charter, Jesus provides clarity, direction, tells me what success looks like in God's eyes, and keeps it simple. Man likes to add a bunch of rules, which is scope creep. But if the foundation is secure, you realize it is out of scope and should not be incorporated into our faith-life.
Please, God, bless!
"For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ." 1 Cor 3:11 ESV
Inspired by "365: A Daily Creativity Journal: Make Something Every Day and Change Your Life!" I decided I should be more conscientious of my creative side. I chose to modify this one year challenge (9/23/14-9/24/15) to create something each day that would also force me to focus my perspective on a Godly world-view.
