I’ll do it!

Those of you with children will recognize the title of this blog. It was claimed by your two-year-old child. “I’ll do it!” Many of our problems as adults began when we said the same thing when we were two years old. We all know what happened to our two-year-old – nothing but catastrophes from small to the giant economy size from then on. Self-sufficiency builds pride by destroying humility. We execute the wrong plans. God had a better one all along, but we never sought his counsel because we thought and said, “I’ll do it!” We improperly used the freedom God gave us to worship ourselves and our abilities.
