This is a story about four people named;
 
Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
 
There was an important job to be done, and
Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
 
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
 
Somebody got angry about that,
because it was Everybody's job.
 
Everybody thought Anybody could do it,
but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
 
It ended up that,
Everybody blamed Somebody when
 
Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

I Peter 4:11
