“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Thursday; February 21, 2008
I’m sure it doesn’t happen at your house; but, every once in
a while around our place, we all get so busy that the house
begins to look amiss. Due to our schedules there are times
when the laundry starts to pile up, the dishes go undone …
even the clutter begins to stack up. When this happens
there comes a time when a decision must be made: are we
going to complain about it or do something about it? We can
fuss about the mess until something is done or we can take
the lead and change the conditions. I have done both – and
I know all to well which one works better.
When we look around at our society, it’s easy to see the
things that are aren’t as good as they could (or should be)
and we have to make a similar choice. We can sit around and
complain about how bad things are or we can start doing
things to make them a better. No, we can’t make everything
okay; but, most of us have something we can do to make it
better. The choice is ours, are we just going to complain
or are we going to do something about it?
Think about it! For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ;
