It is sad to inform you that the first person that attempted to discover the airplanes was Dr. Samuel Lanley and not Orville and Wilbur Wright. He suspended his ambition and lost this vision due to unfaithfulness in pursuing his vision. He lost this due to the fact that he gave into obstacles, criticism and financial setbacks.
Unluckily for him, his dream and ambition was overtaken by Orville and Willbur Wright who faithfully pursued this course despite all odds and finally discovered the airplanes. I tell you dear, at every end point where you throw in the towel; there is always some one that will take over. God will not allow his plan for the world to die because of your unfaithfulness in pursing it. Consider the words of Thomas Edison, “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
Why should you allow someone else to take over when you have all it takes to succeed in that ministry. Decide today to be faithful in your calling until the fruit comes.
COUNSELING AIDS
1. Outline the areas of your ministry (exercise of your spiritual gifts) in which you are not faithful.
Note: There is need to do this now because there are areas we exhibit unfaithfulness ignorantly. So a conscious effort of thinking, remembering and writing it on paper will alert you and help you receive grace to be faithful in those areas.
2. Outline the areas of your ministry where you are effective and faithful and state the effect of your faithfulness.
