Ozymandias

BY PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

I met a traveller from an antique land,

Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,

Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the pedestal, these words appear:

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;

Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away.”


Mere Christianity

C.S. Lewis

"If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this."

Isaiah 40:8

New King James Version (NKJV)

“The grass withers, the flower fades,

But the word of our God stands forever.”

A good question every Christian should ask himself or herself is – “am I here to conquer or to serve?” The answer can't be found with a quick internal response. What is required is a thorough audit of those things that hold priority of our time and effort. Do these things add up to nothing more than personal conquest? Or is their focus rooted in the service of God's Kingdom? Let us all hear that most splendid phrase – “well done, my good and faithful servant!”

Now, we saw the importance of having focus. If you don't have it, there is a chance that you might be directed on other place or opportunity that might misalign you from your real destination. Focus is all about what you want, After knowing it, you will have your way towards it. No matter how hard may it be for you, you will always be inspired to go through it because your end goal is a product of you being focused on it.
