A man lived quietly in his hut. One night, however, something unusual happened. Lord appeared to him and asked him to do something for him. In front of his hut was a large rock and explained rope lights that you have to push the stone daily, with all his powers. True, the man pushed the stone daily.
Many years of hard work from sunrise to sunset, pushing with all his might, shoulders propped rope lights up on the surface of the rock mass and the neclinitit cold. Each night the man returned to his hut sad and weary, feeling a whole day wasted rope lights for nothing.
One day, when man was more discouraged, Satan decided to make its appearance bored thoughts: "For as long push stone and she did not even flinch. Why destroy rope lights yourself for that? Spend your time making only minimal effort and you'll feel better. "
Man loved the idea, but before deciding decided to pray and to tell grievances Lord: "Lord, I worked long and hard for you, gathering rope lights all my strength to do what you asked. Now, after all this time, we were unable to move the stone or half a millimeter. What's wrong? Why did I fail? "
Lord said sympathetically: "My friend, when I asked you to serve me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push with all the powers in the rock, what you did. I never said that expect rope lights you to move. Just push. And now you come to me saying that you failed tired. Really? Look at you. Your arms are strong and muscled, sinewy and tanned behind it, your hands are callused feet deep and strong. It's true, you do not move the rock. But your vocation was to listen and to push, to challenging your faith and trust in My wisdom. What you did. Now I, my friend, will move the rock. "
If they keep this in mind and those who preach, consider (or not done!) It's their duty to convince people at all costs (ie persuasive methods taught by our schools and books) to come to He, not to let the Holy Spirit in this work. Because, after all, the Spirit is the one who convince anyway would return it. However, because of our start persuading others, we risk sending the message that we are leading or at least as important as him.
