Last night as Daryl preached on the parables of the lost sheep and the lost coin, one thing struck me.
Diligence.
In both, diligence was required to find or regain that which was lost.
How diligent am I in doing what I am supposed to do at church? at home? with my family? with my friends?
How many times do I let my own selfish wants interfere with what I should be saying and doing?
How diligent am I in making sure that I think about the right things, focus on the right things, and do the right things?
Do I simply say, "not now," and pretend I'll do it later. Or, do I bite the bullet and do what I know I need to do? And say (or hold my tongue) what needs to be said (or not said, as is more often the case).
