Devotional


"If a man does only what is required of him, his is a slave. If a man does more than is required of him, he is a free man." Chinese Proverb


Life shouldn't be about just doing your job. If you see something that needs to be done, do it, without being told to do it. No one likes to hear "I didn't do it, It's not my fault, It's not my job", etc. If you see something broke, fix it. Make every place you go better than how you found it.


Take Action


"And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth; and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him." 1 Samuel 17:35 Doesn't sound like the actions of a spectator. David took action because he knew what needed to be done and did it.


Our experience ought to encourage us to trust in God and be bold in our duty as Christian men.


"Thou shalt not be a victim. Thou shalt not be a perpetrator. Above all, thou shalt not be a bystander!" Holocaust Museum, D.C.


No, it may not be our fault; but once we've seen it, it just became our responsibility.


Incepto ne desistam! May we not shrink from our purpose!
