What will it take to change?
54 What will it take for you to be shaken from your speech into action that changes. We have been taught our entire lives that one person can't change the world. It is exactly that sentiment that holds back greatness. I get the feeling that people are desperate for a champion. When one person seems to be a great man we dismiss it as childish fantasy and recognize our own cynicism. Yet it is that very hope deep within us that drives us to greatness. Don't snear or condemn greatness. Release it. Release all that God put in us to change the world. People will tell you that one voice is never enough. But one voice rallies millions, the very same millions that are desperate to believe in something. Every person is desperate to commit themselves to something great. I beg you not to let the voices holding you back to do so any longer. People hope for someone just like you. Prove beyond all else that you are serious and people will follow. One good man is worth a hundred in waiting. The day of empty words vain promises was for yesterday. Today is the day of action. People are dying all around you for want of a good man. No matter what anyone has every told you one man can change the world.
All that great people of history were not merely people of words. They risked all. They didn't sit in the background content to pay others to lead the fight. They were people of action. Ordained by God nothing stood in their way as long as they served God. Why are you worth any less than they? Would God not do the same for you? Would God not shield you and support you?
All I want in this life is to see people get riled up. We've sat behind our internet saying good things throwing money at world problems just hoping for someone great to believe in and champion a cause. We've blogged our way right into laziness. Enough with all the words. Enough! Now it would take a miracle for people to even get out of their houses and attempt to change anything.
The abortion cause is a perfect example. Millions of words have been written and dollars collected. And yet, for all our words and money we sit no nearer to ending this abomination in the eyes of God. Children are being slaughtered while we sit back and type in a credit card for maybe $20. Even on facebook there are almost two hundred thousand members supporting the "Abortion Cause" but only $2000 collected, at last count! That means that less than 1% even gave money! The rest just joined the "cause" and sat back feeling good because at least they had done that little. USELESS! The enemy advances only because they see that we aren't willing to do ANYTHING! How can you sit back claiming to be Christians while you allow children to be slaughtered? How can you claim to be Christians and not even care enough to talk about this with friends? I feel like exploding when I think about this murder. The people that sit back and watching this unfold simply cannot have the attitude or mind of Christ. That is what I have concluded because no true Christian could watch that and do as little as joining a facebook "cause". Shameful.
I don't know what it will take for people to get out of their chairs and do something. I simply don't know. People talk about one day ending Roe v. Wade but that won't solve the problem. Even then overturning it is just about impossible It's been over 30 years and we are no closer. Furthermore, our country is only getting more and more liberal. People are caring less and less. So I don't know what it will take. I'm at the point where I'm having to resolve what to do myself. I only pray people feel something before it's too late and we realize that anything is impossible. Yet for all that hopelessness there remains this fact: With God all things are possible, but then only when people care enough to submit themselves to God's will and do something.
