ABILITY VS. AVAILABILITY
One lesson I’ve learned (sometimes painfully so) is that in the general scheme of life, one’s ability counts far less than one’s availability. Availability always…always…trumps ability. The life of Booker T. Washington is one such noteworthy example. At your leisure, check it out.
Josh Billings frames this important truth about staying power so artfully. He writes, “Consider the postage stamp. Its usefulness consists in its tendency to stick to one thing until it gets there.” My friend, when your mind occasionally contemplates other options, just consider the importance of your present situation and decide to stick to it. Always be available and stick to it.
Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
