God is sovereign over your situation. He is King over your problem. He is Lord above all.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time to believe in something that\u2019s not normal. It\u2019s time to stop settling for less because you\u2019re lazy. Stop settling for less because it\u2019s easy. Stop settling for less because you\u2019re scared of what more might mean. You can\u2019t be detoured by lazy habits. You can\u2019t be derailed by cheap temptations.<\/p>\n<p>In store for us all is a life that is bigger than we could ever think. Today, and in every area of your life, stop settling. Stop settling for the snooze button, get up. Stop settling for being late, show up. Stop settling for always being sick, do something about it. Stop settling for hating your body, make baby steps towards fixing it. Stop settling for chaos, speak God\u2019s peace into your life. Stop settling for a quick fix, resolved to be in this for the long haul. Stop settling for distractions that will cause you to spend more money than you make and go further into debt, seek God and make wise decisions. Stop settling for stressful relationships and constant conflict, move first and start making a resolution, or make a change.<\/p>\n<p>God has offered you a life filled with abundance. Won\u2019t you decide that you want it bad enough to stop settling for less?
