Like when Peter says "I'm going fishing" and the disciples say "We also will come with you." ... because that night they caught NOTHING. It's not enough to be a leader - You need to lead in the right direction, otherwise you will not be blessed with a catch.
When Peter listened to Jesus' words "Cast the net over the right side of the boat" THEN, continuing to LEAD, he caught a miraculous amount of fish!
One of the secrets to continuing to grow in sanctity, once you have already more or less thrown off your attachment to sin, is to throw off you attachment to you OWN WILL.
Yes, it's not enough to do "good things," God will bless us most when, between a choice of good and good, we choose what pleases God most! ...
