“Let me be thankful first, because I was never robbed before; second, because, although they took my purse, they did not take my life; third, because it was I who was robbed, not I who robbed.”

Ready to Run
Maverick feels compelled for speed. This is true for fighter jet pilots. In addition to precision flying and aeronautical skill, the speed of the jet can help the pilot not only survive, but thrive in battle, depending on the opponent.
The Christian has a need for speed too, but not just for the thrill of the moment or an addiction to an adrenaline rush. Every Day Carry Christians are ready to run from….
Everyday Witness

Finding God’s Will For Your Life
When young adults and teenagers are discerning the will of God, the strongest motivation perhaps is to allow the pressure or expectations from peers, girlfriends/boyfriends affect their decision-making process.
