I Could Do That

“Modern Art = I could do that

Yeah, but you didn’t.”

— Craig Damrauer

Have you seen everything that church is doing during this pandemic? We could have done that. But we didn’t.

Remember the time you saw that person do such a simple thing that made such a major difference? We could have done that. But we didn’t.

Not long ago you had that great idea. Said you couldn’t get away from it. Even said you thought maybe God was nudging you in that direction.

You could do that. I could help.

Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.

But whoever catches a glimpse of the revealed counsel of God—the free life!—even out of the corner of his eye, and sticks with it, is no distracted scatterbrain but a man or woman of action. That person will find delight and affirmation in the action. (James 1:22-25, The Message version)

When do we start?
