There is an old story about a chicken and a pig. The chicken invites the pig over for breakfast. The chicken tells the pig that she will supply the eggs, if the pig will supply the bacon. The pig thinks for a moment and says that he believes the arrangement to be unfair. When the chicken asks why, the pig responds….you are only contributing to breakfast, while I have to commit to it.
Contribution or commitment…..do I just go through the motions of my routines, or do I put thought into each one as I perform them?
Contribution or commitment…..do I haphazardly and almost complete my tasks, or do I give my all so that I can feel the pride in myself as well as His?
Contribution or commitment…..do I pick and choose what I want to do, knowing that He may not ask for proof, or do I follow my instructions and send proof so there is no doubt?
What do I offer in my submission? Do I just contribute or do I commit to a dynamic? The choice is mine every day.
