“For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power.” (1 Corinthians 4:20, NIV)
This verse shines the light on an area I need to work on–putting action to what I say I am going to do. Oh, I can talk a good game, have the best plans and ideas, but when it comes to execution….well, I fall short. Or I start off strong, but then fizzle out and limp to the end of the finish line.
Following and serving God is about so much more than talk. It is about taking the gifts and talents I have been given and putting them to work in the kingdom. It is about letting the power that is inside me radiate to the outside. It is about making God my Lord, not just my savior–letting Him reign. It is about His will coming before my own and He WILL equip me to carry out His plans.
So, in 2018 I am going to talk less and do more. I am going to put my money where my mouth is and execute!
What about you?
