And herein I give [my] advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward (being eager; zealous; ready; being inclined to do something) a year ago.

Now therefore finish the doing [of it]; that as [there was] a readiness to will, so [there may be] a performance also out of that which you2f have.

For if there be first a willing mind, [it is] accepted according to that a man has, [and] not according to that he has not.Pro 3:28
