Buzyness, however, is moral laziness because it involves refusing to live with courage and intentionality.

Strength is found in weakness. Control is found in dependency. Power is found in surrender.

Genuine trust involves allowing another to matter and have an impact in our lives. For that reason, many who hate and do battle with God trust Him more deeply than those whose complacent faith permits an abstract and motionless stance before Him. Those who trust God most are those whose faith permits them to risk wrestling with Him over the deepest questions of life. Good hearts are captured in a divine wrestling match; fearful, doubting hearts stay clear of the mat.

The more we walk the path first while becoming last and least in our organizations, the more we become like the Alpha and Omega whom we long to serve.

Buzyness, however, is moral laziness because it involves refusing to live with courage and intentionality.

A leader - whether in the home, church, business, community, or government - has authority due to her role, but her positional power will not bring about good for individuals or organizations unless it is backed up by the capital of character.

Healing comes when our story is raw, bone-deep and full of hunger for what only Jesus can offer.
