"That's the spirit!" is such a famous phrase and we hear it all the time. An individual's willingness shows that he is prepared to do even challenging things enthusiastically, unreluctantly and above all cheerfully. But not everyone shows willingness for the Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak (Matthew 26:41). The Apostle Paul therefore tells us that each man should give cheerfully not reluctantly or under compulsion (2 Corinthians 9:7). While JESUS was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw JESUS, he fell with his face to the ground and begged HIM, “LORD, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” JESUS reached out HIS hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” HE said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him. (Luke 5:12-13).
