Word for the day "Time to take the Risk"
Ecclesiastes 11:1 (KJV) Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.I'm convinced that life without risk isn't much of a life. There's a certain comfort in predictability. But it's the kind of comfort you don't find when you're moving and growing. It's the comfort you find in doing the same ole same ole.If you've followed sports or been around athletes, you know that an athlete regularly stretches his muscles to the point where they burn. Otherwise these muscles become inflexible, unresponsive, and easily fatigued. The same is true with your soul. It must be regularly stretched. Failure to do so gives you comfort in the short term, but ultimately leaves you emotionally and spiritually unfit.Connecting, loving, and pursuing dreams, all require risk and energy! Yes, you'll be stretched to the point of discomfort. Yes, you may experience some hurt and disappointment. But these are far better alternatives than the loneliness, boredom, and quiet desperation that accompany a life without risk.Point to ponder- It’s time to take your spiritual life to the next dimension. Let’s go people of God, let’s stop talking about it, and be about it!Our Leadership team is especially thankful for those of you who provided financial donations and support in the month of August 2017 by partnering with us in efforts to advance the kingdom of God in this 21st century season: Special thanks to Mr. William Wilson, Mr. David Straker, Mrs. Annette Straker, Mrs. Marguerite Williams, Ms. Gertrude Scott.
