IMPACT

"I am convinced that when we face our fears, we look straight into the eyes of opportunity, and the courage we often need to engage our greatest challenge can be found only in the misdst of engaging that challenge. There is a point as we seize our divine moments that a battle begins. It is in this point of IMPACT where we experience conflict, opposition, and resistance. But it is also at the point of IMPACT where we have the greatest opportunity. It is on the battlefield that we reflect what's on God's heart, and we stand in that place where God longs to make Himself known."
Erwin McManus

Oh so true! How many days do you wake up feeling like you are about to go into a battle or are in the midst of a battle? But how cool is it to think that God is using these conflicts, oppositions, and struggles as opportunities to not only impact us, but also to impact those around us that are waiting and watching to see how we will respond? I pray that every challenge that we face, we respond to in a way that glorifies God and impacts others by pointing them to Him.

Glad to see you are still posting, hammer. Glad to see big t's also - but big t, you are not keeping up.
Speak about keeping up, where is Kaleb? I checked his blog and no posting since June!
Glad to hear that DVBS went well for big t and glad to hear about hammer's busy schedule.
