The root of dependability is dead in most churches, except for a faithful few, and these few have to take abuse from the unfaithful, undependable ones. The faithful few can always be depended upon and are always in evidence, so they are criticized for wanting to run the show.<\/p>\n

When you are asked to do something, even if it is something simple, do it. It seems that so many of us only want to do the dramatic things\u2014no one wants to be known as being dependable.<\/p>\n
