Said than done

By Bruce Wadd

 

Most people never trade shares on the stock exchange! I have had enough experience to be dangerous, and have both, made money and lost equally as much.

 

But when you learn trading, most teachers and gurus repeat the same mantra.  

‘Always trade within the system!  

If you don’t you will get caught out!’

 

It’s a simple, clear message, but when you’re balancing fear and greed inside, as you trade, it becomes much 'easier said than done’.

 

Walking in Jesus is simple.  It’s merely living in peace continually.  But both you and I know that given all of our past, it’s the same as trading, ‘easier said than done’.  Thankfully, it doesn’t diminish God’s grace.

 

Jesus said profound words to a condemned young lady that changed her life.  She had lived mostly outside the society’s laws, but He knew what would change her – His love!

 

‘“There is really only one thing

worth being concerned about ….

and I won’t take it away from her!” said Jesus’

 Luke 10:42

 

Let Jesus change you – it’s easier done than said
