Were you expecting a joke? I know, the title seemed like a lead-in to a joke, but really, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine just over an hour ago. We were discussing the trappings of seminars, conventions, etc., on how to ______________ (fill in the blank) instead of just following what God has already told us to do - to listen to Him and His direction. Then I read this post by Keith Giles, and he put it so much better than I ever could that I will send you over his way to read his blog. Ironically, in sending you to read the post in a way I am actually doing the opposite of what he is posting about.
Stop. Shut Up. Move.
Okay, for those of you expecting a joke, here you go:
A rabbi, a priest, a pastor, and a monk all walk into a bar. The bartender says, "What is this, some kind of joke?"
That is good. I'll have to have Paul read that one. And it's so true. I get like that too. I can read, attend seminars, etc... and never really 'do' what the Lord has called me to do. Very encouraging. And funny joke. :)
