NOT ENOUGH

At the present time I am reading again that certain things are not enough.

“Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do,” says the German poet JW von Goethe, who lived from 1749-1832.

Long ago I read in the Bible that hearing is not enough; we must practice. The Lord Jesus Christ says that in the gospel of Matthew. In  Matthew 7:24-27 we find the story about two builders, the Wise builder and the Foolish builder.

First Corinthians 13:4 "Love is patient, love is kind."

First Corinthians 13:4 “Love is patient, love is kind.”

Hear what the Bible says: The Bible says, “Follow the way of love …” What is love? Hear again what the Bible says: “Love is patient, love is kind …” What is patience? “Patience: The ability to count down before blasting off!” A Church sign said some time ago: “Lord, give us patience, but hurry!” And only today I read the following: “KINDNESS MAKES YOU THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON, NO MATTER WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE.”

We have learned quite a bit about the things that are not enough, therefore, let us apply, let us practice, let us do. Only today I read in a Hunting & Fishing catalogue at least twice “OUT THERE DOING IT.”
