INITIATIVE

"You cannot follow God in neutral. God has created you to do something. It is not enough to stop the wrong and then be paralyzed when it comes to the right. God created you to do good. And doing this requires initiative. There is a subtle danger of hiding apathy behid piety. Getting rid of the sin in your life? Great. Now it's time to do something". Raphael Mcmanus (Chasing Daylight)

    We often think if we worry only about what is right or wrong in our own actions we will be okay. But what this is saying is that it takes more than just that. It takes our initiative. Thanks for the reminder to MOVE from my comfortable place.

    I heard the analogy once that if you sit down on your spiritual journey, it's like sitting down in quicksand. The longer you stay, the harder it is to get up. The more motivated we are to keep moving, the more ground we'll cover as we move closer to God and His purpose for our lives.
