subject: Learn To Live Life To The Fullest [print this page] There will be levels, there will be greater rewards for those believers who develop their gifts, compared to those who just sit back and do the stomach thing, Feed me, baby, feed me. Those here who have really busted it, those here who maybe just had one talent or two and really used their skill set on the playing field, God will look at you and say, Well done, my good and faithful servant. Here is your reward. For others He will say, Boy, I gifted you. I loved you. I tried to communicate to you. I tried to get to you. I put you in Fellowship Church, one of the greatest churches around, yet you did not do it. You said, Oh, he will do it. She will do it. I will just sit back. Come on, feed me, baby, feed me. And you will miss it. You will miss it here and you will miss the rewards that God wants to give you in eternity. Sometimes, when I am watching a television show, I welcome commercials. I like commercial breaks now and then. It gives me a chance to maybe go to the kitchen, grab a cup of coffee, and just kind of process what is going on. Lets take a commercial break. As you can see, we have a myriad of ministries around here. You could take me, spin me around like the Wheel of Fortune and then stop me. And whatever ministry I land on needs you. A lot of us could hear a message like this and go, Whoa, this is cool. According to Ed Young Jr I am drafted. I am signed. I am gifted, I am coached. I am going to be graded. Oh, cool commercial. Yeah, man, that is really nice. Let me just go ahead and close my Bible. That is good and all that. Let me go ahead and jump into my car and get warm and I can just go have some brunch. We can hear all this stuff, and, many times, we still throw these weak excuses Gods way. I want to give you some popular excuses, excuses I have even given before. The first one is: I am too busy. Oh, you have an opportunity to use your skill set on one the most important playing fields around, but you are too busy.
