Don't expect much from people if you are always giving very little.
Don't expect your children to obey you when your walk doesn't match your talk.
Don't expect God to forgive you when you don't forgive others.
Don't expect to grow if you're not willing to learn.
Don't expect people to change if you're not willing to change.
Don't expect people to know about the love of Jesus if you never tell them about it.
Don't expect someone to go the second mile with you if you can't even go one mile with them.
Don't expect people to listen when you're always talking.
