There is a sign at the entrance of a great manufacturing plant that reads:
"If you are like a wheelbarrow - going no farther than
you are pushed - you need not apply for work here."
The real beauty of Christian living lies in "the second
mile."
Jesus talked at length to His followers that they were to be
known by the beauty of going a little farther & consistent with His own
teaching, He took the road to Calvary.

Mat 5:41 (NIV): “If anyone forces you to go one mile, go
with them two miles.”
Gen 24:17-19 (GNT): The servant ran to meet her (Rebecca)
and said, “Please give me a drink of water from your jar.” She said, “Drink, sir,” and quickly lowered
her jar from her shoulder and held it while he drank. When he had finished, she said, “I will also
bring water for your camels and let them have all they want.”
