The Pursuit of Achievements

City Awakening Church

Ecclesiastes 2, 4
Louis Tamburro
Our life achievements are temporary unless they’re aligned with Jesus and his eternal kingdom. Yet most people are burnt out, stressed out, emotionally and physically worn out working so hard to build their own temporal kingdoms. They’re on the pursuit of achievements, pursuing lasting impact, satisfaction, and recognition in temporal things that’ll eventually perish. What are those things for you?. What’s the pursuit of achievements look like for you? Are you working hard to achieve salvation, to achieve God’s love? Are you working hard to achieve something great, to make an impact in this world? Are you working hard to achieve a lot of money so you can have satisfaction and live a comfortable life? Are you working hard to achieve recognition and approval from others? What are you working so hard to achieve in life? In the words of C.T. Studd, “Only one life, twill soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last.”
