Talk Is Cheap

There is profit in all hard work, but endless talk leads only to poverty. - Proverbs 14:23

We have a saying in America that goes like this, "Talk is cheap."

This, of course, means that it is easy to talk about doing something (or talk about having done it), but a lot harder to actually do it. I have for many years asked the question, "When all is said and done, what will have been said and what will have been done?"

Has God told you to do something, which you have not done? If not, why not?

In June of 2007, I had to respond to a similar question from the Lord when He asked, "Why are you still in the United States when so many have never had an opportunity to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ?" God made it very clear to my wife and I that it was time to "put up" or "shut up," and we moved to Africa.

What is the Lord leading you to do? What must you do to remain obedient to His will and purposes? Talk is cheap.

The ship that will not obey the helm will have to obey the rocks. - English Proverb
