Ecclesiastes 9.10 NIV
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.”
There is nothing worse than a guy without passion for what he does. A lackadaisical approach is uninspiring and does nothing to advance one’s station in life. There will be plenty of time to do nothing after you die. Until then make your life count. Your boss, clients, wife, kids, neighbors, church, community, and country are depending on you. Show some fire. Get with the program. Have some zest. Go for the gusto. Risk a little controversy. Stand up for what you believe. Be someone. Be a man. Make a difference. Do something… anything!
“Whatever you hand finds to do, do it with all your might”.
“Whatever you hand finds to do, do it with all your might”.
You’ll sleep well at night knowing you did all you could do and gave it all you had. That’s good enough. God expects no more… and no less. The Holy Spirit may even empower you to do the impossible. Have a little faith. It doesn’t take much. Jesus said, “…if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you”, (Matthew 17.20 NIV).

No athlete, entrepreneur, teacher, scholar, father, friend, actor, or artist ever fulfilled their God-given destiny with half-hearted effort. Job, Moses, Joshua, Samuel, David, Elijah, Hezekiah, Jeremiah, Jonah, Peter, and Paul gave it everything they had. So can you. Anything less than your best is not good enough.
