Great Quote...

So here's another great quote from Mark Batterson...

"Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. Set God-sized goals. Pursue God-ordained passions. Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention. Keep asking questions. Keep making mistakes. Keep seeking God. Stop pointing out problems and become part of the solution. Stop repeating the past and start creating the future. Stop playing it safe and start taking risks. Accumulate experiences. Consider the lilies. Criticize by creating. Find every excuse you can to celebrate everything you can. Live like today is the first day and last day of your life. Don't let what's wrong with you keep you from worshiping what's right with God. Burn sinful bridges. Blaze new trails. Worry less about what people think and more about what God thinks. Don't try to be who you're not. Be yourself. Laugh at yourself. Quit holding out. Quit holding back. Quit running away.


Chase the lion."

I absoultly love this saying! My favorite part is, Concider the lillies, because they are my favorite flower and well I guess lately I have forgotten to stop and enjoy them like I use to. Thank you for the nice words you left and the prayers. I really appriecate them. God Bless!

What a fabulous quote! My favorite part was "Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention." A couple weekends ago a friend said, "God doesn't tell us to do the possible, but the impossible, so He can get the credit." I love that! So I'm working on it, in several areas and looking for His intervention all the time! Thanks for posting this! Love you!
