Do you have a vision for your life? All of us need a compelling vision to live for. Scripture says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Today, so many of us are living on autopilot instead of engaging the battle of living up to our God-given potential.

It’s written so that you can start your day on the right foot, focused on what matters the most. Start each day with a potent, daily dose of vision for your life.
