The fourth quarter often determines the outcome of the game.  If a team can play well in the fourth quarter, it is often the differentiation between the win and loss.

Spiritually, I have a fourth quarter.   Around this time of year, I usually get tempted to “coast” in my spiritual disciplines.   There is so much activity in September and October, and then come holidays, and then the year ends.  Regular prayer and Bible Study can slip as a priority, and I always regret this.

How is your fourth quarter?   Let’s finish our year strong with passion and love for Jesus.   Unless we abide in Him, we will not bear fruit.
