Welcome to the Jeff Kaven show.

Good to have you with me once again, as we always talk about things that are very, very important as far as the kingdom of God goes and applying the truths from Scripture, applying them in everyday life. It really does make a difference. And more than anything else, and the most important thing, is it honors God and brings glory to God. And that's what it's all about. It's not really about bringing glory to our own lives. It's about bringing glory to God. So how many times in your life have you come up with an idea? And it was actually a really good idea. And you thought to yourself, you know what, I'm going to do that. I'm going to do

that. I'm going to plan it out and I'm going to do it. But then life got in the way and you never

ended up doing what you might have even thought God was giving you at the time. Well, I've had a few

of those in my day. And so I do know what that is like. But you know, it gets worse than that.

It even gets to the point where you can't remember what those ideas were 10 years later or

five years later. Sometimes a week later, right? And so we come up with all kinds of ideas and all

kinds of plans on what we're going to do with

our life and, you know, the difference we're going to make in the world and the way we're going to

raise our kids and new family habits and the whole thing. But then life just grabs you by the

tail and whips you around. And before you know it, you really haven't made any progress in life.

And I know that can be very, very frustrating. I want to talk

about that today because I've had so many people say to me, I feel like I'm in a rut. And I think I can

help today in doing it. And I do have some scriptures for you. If you do want the scriptures,

absolutely free. Don't even charge a nickel.

We'll get those to you.

All you got to do is text my name, Jeff Kavens, one word, Jeff Kavins, and text it to the number 33777.
