Excellence

Someone has said, "There is no substitute for excellence, not ever success." Whatever we are called to do, we should always do it to the best of our ability--to the glory of God. We should not just finish the "assignment," or settle for meeting the requirements of men, but we should strive to do the absolute best that we can with the time and resources we have been given. We are not called to please men but to please God. He is the one for whom we do all things. Don't ever settle for "that's enough to get by," or if a student, "that's enough to get the grade I want"--even if that grade is an A. The issue is excellence. Would Jesus say, "Well done, good and faithful servant"?

"Good enough" is not good enough.
