Faith Venture

Ever go to a meeting where there are endless arguments and discussions about what the committee should be, or what it should do? Ever get bored? Wish everyone would just get off their “backsides” and get on with the work?

OK, this guy isn’t a Christian writer, but Marcus Aurelius was on target with this thought, “Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be; just be one.”

I once had a boss who said, “Everyone knows who the good teachers are.” Quantifiable? Not particularly. Explainable in a few words? Not really. But by the quality of the person, truly everyone just knows. By the way, he was an engineer. They are typically fact driven people. But if you just go forth to “be one,” people will know. You will know. God will know.
