How honest are you with your own vocabulary?
We often find ourselves saying, “I just can’t forgive them,” or “I simply can’t stop this habit.” It sounds innocent enough—like a plea for help. But deep down, are we really saying we lack the ability, or are we admitting that we lack the willingness?
In this piercing video, “Can’t vs. Won’t,” we confront the subtle but dangerous excuses we make in our spiritual lives. When we tell God “I can’t,” we are often implying that He has asked us to do something impossible—essentially blaming Him for our inaction. But when we swap that word for the truth—”I won’t”—we finally take responsibility for our own rebellion.
In this challenging message, we explore:
- The Power of Words: Why the distinction between inability (“can’t”) and refusal (“won’t”) matters to God.
- Taking Responsibility: Moving from a victim mentality to owning our choices and our sin.
- Honesty with God: Learning that true spiritual growth begins when we stop hiding behind excuses and start confessing our stubbornness.
Let’s stop hiding behind “can’t.” Join me as we learn to speak the truth about our own hearts, because only when we admit we won’t can God give us the grace to say we will.
