A little girl came home from school and said to her mother, "Mummy, today in school I was punished for something that I didn’t do." The mother exclaimed, "But that’s terrible! I’m going to have a talk with your teacher about this...by the way, what was it that you didn’t do?" The little girl replied, "My Homework."
Robert E. Lee said, "Private and public life are subject to the same rules; and truth and manliness are two qualities that will carry you through this world much better than policy, or tact, or expediency, or any other word that was ever devised to conceal or mystify a deviation from the straight line." There's so much truth dripping from this statement by Robert E. Lee. There are so many people out there, like this little girl, refusing to do their homework. We want God to bless us, but we must fulfill our part of the equation.
It is Jesus responsibility, to raise our Lazaruses, BUT it is our responsibility to ROLL the stone away. His job is to speak over OUR WORK. If we don't WORK, He won't have anything to speak over. He will bless the work of YOUR hands. We're punished daily because we have refused to do, 'OUR' homework. God has a duty, as much as we do. Stop waiting on God, when all the while He's waiting on you. Write the proposal: submit it, register the company, fix a date for the wedding, tell her your heart. Whatever you have to do, do it. Give God something to speak over.
