Commitment

Filed under: Life's Journey

Mark Batterson shared a takeaway from some time he spent with Rick Warren yesterday. He said that we grow by making commitments. "You don't grow to commitment. You grow through commitment."

What a powerful perspective on how to do life. I think the less we're committed to something, the more we commit to anything. I am reminded of the familiar phrases we often hear when someone is struggling with an addiction. "He should be committed." "She was finally committed after the last arrest." Commitment is definitely an answer to overcoming some of life's greatest challenges, but imagine how much more meaningful life would be if commitment helped guide our life instead of resuscitate our life.
