Most people are kind to me. Each week, someone will tell me how much they were blessed by the sermon or how one of my blogs spoke to their situation in life. They will share how a devotion or a lesson was instrumental in their thinking and walk with God.

My secret to success is simple:  Keep showing up.

I have committed to producing my best work every single day. That means I show up when I don’t feel like it. I write and work even when I would rather be someplace else. I am always in the office early and have my mind working. I sometimes preach and publish items I know are not as good as I hoped, but I keep putting them out there daily and weekly.

One amazing part of working for God is that if you keep teaching, preaching, writing, and talking, God will take one of those interactions and use it for good.

Having an impact for God takes less skill than one might think; it is more about doing the work over and over again. You keep showing up until God shows up to use your efforts.
