So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.—James 4:17

I, like you, have had many a moment where I wished I would have done something. Took a stand for righteousness. Spoke up against injustice. Shared my beliefs. Given generously to a person in need. But because of the pause—we invite passivity. And what follows the pause? The voice self-justification. And this begets more reasoning on why we "should not act" rather than why we "should." So today reject the passive pause. Do the right thing and speak up and do something—even if the action is not entirely correct because the one correct thing you'll end up doing is rejecting passivity.

DO THIS: Reject the passive pause.

PRAYER: God, encourage me to act when called upon.
