We were inspired by Joshua Chamberlain this week. One hundred and fifty years ago, he made a DECISION to "Do Something" and it changed the course of history! David Ponder traveled to Gettysburg this week and received the blue tobacco pouch from Chamberlain himself. He learned about the most crucial decision of all..."I am a person of Action!" Without this important decision, the rest are not useful.
Becoming a person of action is a choice, not a process. Joshua Chamberlain made the choice to come over the hill and push forward when things looked bleak back in 1863. It changed the course of our world's history! We learned a valuable lesson from him this week. When a choice to do nothing, or to do something arises, we must make the choice to "Do Something!" The action we take is defining us every day!
When things look bleak, when discouragement is high, when hope seems to be lost..."DO SOMETHING!" We can go from hopeless to hopeful just by doing something. We can change discouragement to encouragement by doing something and we surely will have a bright and healthy future if we continue to listen to that small inner voice that says "do something, do something!"
