#32. PREPARATION MEETS OPPORTUNITY

Episode 32 I love the concept of preparation meeting opportunity! The more life I live, the more I see this truth being played out over and over - "Success occurs when preparation meets opportunity." I use the word success loosely but it can even mean a more favorable result in this case. Too often we get way too focused on the opportunity and don't spend nearly enough time preparing for that opportunity!! No doubt God wants us to be prepared for life. In this podcast I talk about 3 specific areas that I believe is most beneficial for teenagers. The 3 areas are: 1. Extracurricular Activities 2. Relationships 3. Spiritually Matt 24: 42-44 42 “So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming. 43 Understand this: If a homeowner knew exactly when a burglar was coming, he would keep watch and not permit his house to be broken into. 44 You also must be ready all the time, for the Son of Man will come when least expected. 1 Peter 3:15 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, Bottom line is that God wants us to be prepared! Focus less on the opportunity and more on being prepared! Obviously the most important thing that you can do in this life is prepare for eternity! Romans 10:9 9 For if you tell others with your own mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord and believe in your own heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
