Great Men?

“Great Men”

All men seek significance in life. Some through power. Some through other means.

From professional significance seekers like politicians to amateurs – like the local school board president. Their desire is to feel significant. The problem is that there is NO significance except through Christ alone.

“But,” the Great Man says, ”that method of attaining significance does not require my good effort, great knowledge and exemplary leadership skills.”

True. It reqiures no active effort on our part. It requires something more difficult. Passivity. Rest. And complete faith.

Unfortunately, “Great Men” are too busy moving the next mountain to go there…
