1.Do things with excellence for God's Glory

Excellence is a worthy pursuit, but it's not really the target. Jesus chose a rag-tag bunch of rough cut fellows to be His disciples. He led them on a journey in which He often didn't have a place to lay his head. The fed enormous crowds from lunch scraps. Never allow a lack of resources to become an excuse that deters you from doing the very best you can with what you have, and never let the pursuit of excellence stop you from pursuing God and pursuing souls for His sake.
