Thoughts on Following Through


" .. I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else to do what God has called me to do myself" (Josh Wilson, "I Refuse").

Are you ever tempted to just sit back and wait for someone else to do something, instead of doing it yourself?

I used to tell my children, "delayed obedience is disobedience." I never wanted them to be afraid of me. But I knew delayed obedience might even be dangerous and harmful at times. And my instructions were motivated out of my love for them. I wanted them to learn obedience as children, so they could learn to obey God and their God-given authorities as adults.

I believe that the question about following through on the tasks that God puts on your heart to do centers around obedience. So today, I'm asking myself once again, Am I going to “sit around and wait for someone else to do what God has called me to do myself’?

What has God called you to do? Are you sitting around and waiting for someone else to do it?
