"Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act." -Proverbs 3:27 (NIV)
I recently hear a quote of Milton Friedman that said, "The power to do good is also the power to do harm." Throughout our lives, we have choices about our actions and reactions. We can choose to do good. However, if we choose to withhold doing good, we can cause harm!
God calls us to do His will. He calls us to do good. Even when we think we are powerless, God can provide the power to act. When God provides us the power and recognition of what is good, we must be prepared to act. We can give excuses for why we can't act. We can't let our pride stand in the way of doing good. We need to submit to God and follow Him for the glory of His Kingdom. We need to do good whenever it is within our power!
Follow God and act in His power to do good!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the power and goodness You display in my life. Help me to always do good whenever it is in my power. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
