Humanity has a default definition of success. There is a measure of earthly achievement—and we all strangely know it. The problem is, this earthly idea doesn’t match God’s definition and God’s measurement for success. This discrepancy often plays havoc in the believer’s life. As young believers, we often launch out into life attempting to build up the skills, the knowledge, and the aptitude to succeed in a manner that will cause an outbreak of applause amongst the world, while, often, God isn’t stirred one bit by the sight of our pathetic endeavors. But, what if we launched out into life with a vision to be shaped for success in the precise way that God defines success? If we did, then we would be built to pass “The Man Test” with flying colors.
