THE POWER OF A WILLING MIND - James Abiona.
One person that is willing in the midst of 1000 unwilling minds can pay salaries to the rest 999. David said "oh Lord, my heart is FIXED". A fixed heart brings about a willing mind and a willing mind translates into a meaningful activity.
Intention means nothing but ACTION is everything. Mobility does not necessitate productivity. Activities and effectiveness are not the same. A lot of us are just roaming around because anything you do that does not add up profit in cash or in kind is a labour loss.
David didn't kill Goliath because he was a strong fighter. He killed him by the power of a willing heart. The heart of the matter in that encounter was a matter of the heart. It's called having a FIGHTING SPIRIT. It's not the size of the dog in the fight that counts; it's the size of the fight in the dog that really counts.
The labour of the labourer wearies him because he doesn't know how to go to the city. Then he must return to his village because the city cannot accommodate mediocrity and laziness. A weak heart is worst than a weak hand.
On the path of the journey of life; I-want-to is the starting point while ''I-did" is the completion. Only a willing and obedient person can eat the good things of any given land. Great meetings do not make people, but great actions make people.
You must go all out and do what you want to do. Nobody can do it for you. You must have an indomitable spirit who carries a can-do spirit. You must know good is an enemy of best.
You must set goals and be willing to pay the price for the prize. The ultimate reason for setting challenging goals is to entice yourself to become the person it takes to achieve it. You need to become the person you really wish to meet.
Do you know that it is not a sin to get to a level in your life where the project demands from you what you don't have which only God can provide?
A car ran over the only child of a single mother. She singlehandedly lifted the car to save her son not because she had such energy physically but the situation she was in impelled her to draw strength and save her only child.
