And whatsoever ye do, do [it] heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men. Colossians 3:23

At 211 degrees, water is hot. At 212 degrees, water boils. With boiling water comes steam, and guess what…steam can power a locomotive. Do you see what raising the temperature of water by just one degree can create? Raising the temperature of water by just one degree starts the process of transforming something that is simply hot to something that can generate enough force to power a machine. Just one degree!

It is that “one degree” that will begin the process of making you into an unstoppable locomotive in life!

The same is true in your life. Just one degree or just one small change in your life will begin the process of transforming you into someone completely different than you are right now. What do I mean?

· Getting up 15 minutes earlier to pray in the morning will change your attitude toward the day
· Saying “Thank You” to the barista who serves you coffee each morning will make you a more grateful person
· Turning off the TV and opening the Bible instead will make you a wiser and spiritually minded person
· You fill in the blank with what your “one degree” will be today

It is a universal principle that you are responsible for the results you receive out of life. So why not exercise that responsibility starting now by choosing one small change that you will make today. It is that “one degree” that will begin the process of making you into an unstoppable locomotive in life!
