A body that is still will do nothing but perish.

You all sit here and ask, “My gosh, there’s so many bad things in the world. Why won’t anything change? Why won’t the homeless be fed? Why won’t the children be provided homes? Why won’t violence stop?” You want to know why? Because so many of us are sitting back and thinking someone else will do it. “Oh I don’t have to do that. Someone else will do it.” “That’s not my job. Eventually someone will get to it.” If we keep saying, “oh someone ELSE will do it,” NO ONE will do it. 

You want to see a world change. You want to see peace. You want to see wars stopped, poverty ended, healthy children, equality, yet you do nothing to end it. You’re so complacent and comfortable with your own lives you expect someone else to fix all the problems. If we don’t start moving now, nothing will change. We will continue living in a desolate world. You continue to ask why so many bad things are happening, yet you don’t get up to fix them, to stop them, or to change them.

Quit believing you’re going to change something by waiting for someone else to start. Change starts within us, slowly it goes to our community, where we gather, group, and create, and then it spreads to the nations. Change doesn’t happen over night. We are all leaders of change. We are ALL a part of something greater. Stand up! Move! Begin to be the change you want to see in the world. Stop living complacent lives, and quit thinking, “Someone else will do the job.” 

A body cannot move without the hands and feet. It cannot change without the heart. We are all part of the body. We all have the capacity to change the world around us. So get up, get moving, and do something about it.
