The Best Career Plan

Daily writing prompt
What is your career plan?

The best career plan for me has been to stay inwardly attentive and to ceaselessly seek guidance and direction from within me. I believe that an amazing presence has been living inside of me since I was 19. That is the presence of the risen Jesus Christ. I ask Him to lead and to guide me and I try to focus my attention on Him throughout each day. The results so far have produced an amazingly rewarding career and life, and more is still to come.

True hope in Jesus causes people to continually focus their attention on Him, (Hebrews 12:2) to hunger and thirst for righteousness, (Matthew 5: 6) and to seek first His kingdom. (Matthew 6:33) As they do they purify themselves day after day as He is pure. (1 John 3;3) The more people allow themselves to be led by His Spirit (Romans 12:11) the more they are aware that Christ is literally living inside of them (Colossians 1:27) and the more they realize and are attentive and surrendered to the love that God has given them by making them His children. (1 John 3:1)

Unceasingly behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. (John 1:29) The more you behold the risen Jesus and grasp the reality of God’s love, the more you will become filled with the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:16-19)

A new Pope
Can bring hope
But Jesus
Christ in you
Is the hope
Of glory
Unending.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
