The Brave DO
“In all labor there is profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty.” (Proverbs 14:23)
Making plans is fine, but not merely making plans. At some point, we have to put our hand on the shovel and start digging. Stop talking about evangelism and start evangelizing. Stop talking about doing good to others and start doing it. A little good beats big talk every time.
The brave DO.
“What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace, be warmed and filled,’ without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” (James 2:14-17)
