"Even if you’re on the right track-you’ll get run over if you just sit there." ~Will RogersThis was one of the quotes in our ministry trip journals my freshman year of high school. At the time, it was a good reminder that being on a ministry trip didn't make me automatically any closer to God than sitting in church did, or sitting at my kitchen table or laying in bed.
Progress is all about forward momentum. It has little to do with location.
Today, it is a reminder that mentally agreeing with a just cause is not the same thing as doing something about the just cause.
My heart and my mind might agree that the Focus Month is a good idea, but, unless my hands are actively doing something to bring it into reality, I'm just sitting there, waiting to get run over. What about you? What track are you sitting on today?
(Hint: If you can't think of anything, I have a wonderful place for you to start.)
