Philippians 4:10

But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity. Philippians 4:10

Paul here is praising the Lord for people of action. Not just people of belief but people of beliefs that motivated them to action. Too many people today believe that all God wants is a mental assent to a knowledge of Him. That is not enough; He wants more from you.

Anyone who has a real burden, a mission, for someone or something will work toward that end. Political groups know this and they campaign to get people more burdened, more conscious of their issue and then those people will get involved. People are willing to act for something they truly believe in.

It is the same with Christianity! People are willing to work when they truly believe.

God Bless!
