Talk Is Cheap

 I have heard someone say, “ I wish I were as good a speaker as so and so,” in a meeting.  I sometimes feel like that when listening to someone preach.  But I keep in mind that I sometimes can sound quite good, but in fact am not “walking the walk” all that well.  Talk is cheap, as they say.  Progress, not words or thoughts well put together, is important.  So I work on my progress and try not to worry about how I speak in public.  Spiritual progress can have a lot of silence and very few words.  Progress is action.
