At once he (Paul) began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God. _{Acts 9:20}

Our Navy has over 700 ships that comprise what is called the “Mothball Navy.” These vessels, anchored in various harbors around the country, receive regular maintenance to prevent rust. But they’re just sitting there, doing nothing.

Any pastor will tell you that there are many mothballed Christians in the church. They sit harbored there, week in and week out. They require maintenance, especially when they have a problem or need. But they’re not serving the Lord. We call this the 80-20 rule, that 20 percent of the folks do 80 percent of the work. But this should not be. If Christ has saved you from your sins, then out of love you should be zealous to serve Him. If we are growing to be like Jesus, our focus in life should be to serve Him.
