One of the most interesting thing I love about
studying Government as a general course in school is Democracy – government of
the people, by the people and for the people. It means that the people
determine what happens to them to a large extent. It doesn’t matter how rich,
influential, spiritual, muscular, beautiful or powerful you are, you have to
personally stand up to go urinate unless you are sick.
There are some things you have to personally do to
witness a better life. Jesus told Peter, “Cast the net again.” Jesus couldn’t
do the casting on Peter’s behalf, Peter had to do it. You must take personal
responsibility for your life – by the way, it is yours and not mine. You cannot
change the circumstances, the economy or the weather, but you can change yourself.
Someone said if you don’t like how things are, change it! You are not a tree.
Stop waiting for someone to pray for you, you are
your own prophet. Stop waiting for someone to tell you to stop sinning, make
that decision by yourself – after all, it hasn’t in any way better life. Hear
this, “You can’t hire someone else to do push-ups for you.”
Get started!
