Quote by Lee Iacocca

There are times when even the best manager is like the little boy with the big dog, waiting to see where the dog wants to go so he can take him there.

Summary

This quote suggests that even skilled managers can sometimes find themselves in situations where they must follow the lead of others, just like a little boy walking a big dog. Despite their expertise and knowledge, there may be times when they need to relinquish control and rely on the guidance or decisions of someone else, whether it be a superior, team member, or external force. It highlights the importance of adaptability and humility in leadership, understanding that effective management sometimes requires the ability to take direction and follow instead of always leading.

The offer of God's love, the Gospel, with its command to man

The offer of God's love, the Gospel, with its command to mankind to believe on Christ, is sent forth into all the world. But no man of his own volition will respond to it. Rather, in his lusting after sin he will do all that he can to silence and reject it. The deadness of man is so succinctly outlined in Romans 3:10-20 and Ephesians 2:1-3. There is none that seeketh after God, we read in Romans 3:11. Man is as spiritually dead as Lazarus was physically dead after his body had decayed in the tomb for 4 days. No wonder the Bible declares in John 6:44, No one can come to Me except the Father draw him. No man is able to come because he is spiritually dead.
