NO! IT'S NOT THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS
This is meaningless saying, that
soothes the conscience of many disobedient believers. Think about the recipients
of your kind thoughts. The family that still went to bed hungry after feasting
on your kind thoughts. The shut in that weeps with loneliness struggling to find
comfort in fond memories. Try to convince her, that your thoughts should count
for something.
Remember you were thinking of taking him fishing? The
despondent teen who jumped from the bridge, he should have known, it was your
thought that counted. What about the thought you had of buying flowers, for
that lady whose husband left her for another woman. I gave you that thought to
ease her pain, and stop her from over dosing? You were too busy, but your
friends made you feel better by saying, "It's the thought that counts". She
never regained consciousness, but she got a whole bunch of flowers a few days
later, too bad she never saw them.
Did you "know that in you, (that is,
in your flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: ... Romans 7:18 (KJV) so where do you
think those thoughts of loving deeds are coming from? The enemy? You keep
praying, "Lord use me" and you have no idea what you are praying about. I give
millions of thoughts every hour to millions of believers. Kingdom building
thoughts, that are designed to build relationships. My kingdom is built in the
hearts of men, women, boys, and girls using the mortar of relationship. It is
stupid for you to say, it's the thought that counts, because it only makes you a
legend in your own mind. If you were sitting on a railroad track, and see an
approaching train, would you just think of moving, while yelling to the
engineer, "It's the thought that counts". Let Me inform you now, no one, at your
funeral will say, "it was his thought that counted". Behind their tears, they
would be thinking, what a jerk!
Get your priorities right, line them up
with My thoughts, so your hands and feet will turn them into kingdom building
action! Next time you think, I wonder if I should help them??? DO NOT KEEP
DRIVING !!! TURN YOUR CAR AROUND AND STOP !!! Otherwise stop saying, Lord use
me. The thought does not count, it's worthless as long as it remains only a
thought. Do you need to be shown more "proof, that your thoughts are
(unproductive, spiritually deficient) that faith apart from good works is
inactive and ineffective and worthless? James 2:20 (AMP)
Unless you
engage your hands and feet and carry out My thoughts, you will be counted a
disobedient, son and daughter. Remember ... "I am He Who searches minds (the
thoughts, feelings, and purposes) and the inmost hearts, and I will give to each
of you the reward for what you have done as your work deserves, "Revelation 2:23
(AMP) not the thought that you said counts.
