Work for it until you earn it

There are many who want to be the next best thing and yet they can't do the least of things.  They want the major with no clue of the minor. From the new manager at work who was not promoted on merit but just knew the right people to hire him/her , to the preacher's son or daughter who simply takes over the church of his ailing or deceased father with no preparation or calling on his own life, to the leaders who get positions of authority from association with past leaders not by qualification, to children in character foolishly making the decision of mature people to marry.  The examples are many but the attitude is the same, wanting glory without the sweat. Perhaps the reason why so many institutions are failing is because of ill qualified people in the right positions. Someone said "fake it till you make it"and the world forgot about work for it until you earn it! That is the true godly order. Sowing what you have reaped, reaping in due season (after you have suffered a while). The very gaps you did not fill will be the same ones that will trip you at the top so patiently work yourself to the right position, don't rush it. There is value in preparation.
