When did we become a nation of cowards? Why is it always... someone else first? We should set up a committee! We should get training! I swear...is it cowardice or stupidity?
Why are our actions always based on someone else's?
I will love my wife if she submits to me.
I will submit to my husband if and only when He is a Godly man.
I will evangelize to others when my other Christian friends start doing it.
I will live my life for Christ when others demonstrate the same thing.
Don't you know that give those people power? Once you make your actions contingent on another's...you give them power over your life.
Stop comparing your life to others. The situation you are in is unique to you and you alone. The blessings and trials you experience are for the shaping of your life so YOU can be more Christ-like.
All that matters is your relationship with God. Fix your eyes firmly on Him, trust Him, submit to Him, and know that He is good.
