Growing together in the Spirit of Jesus Christ...

"For I long to visit you so I can bring you some spiritual gift that will help you grow strong in the Lord. When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours." - Romans 1:11,12 NLT

December 31, 2008

direction you are moving
(chess and life)

If we are good at it,
we can perhaps see a few moves ahead.
Why not give God control…
He can see through to the end
and is capable
of turning our bad choices into victory.

It is far better for us to give Him control
in the early game otherwise we will suffer
the consequences of those bad moves
we made under our own control.

Even so, once we give Him control,
we gain new life for the rest of the game
and our victory is assured.

“The great thing in this world
is not so much where you stand,
as in what direction you are moving.”
- Oliver Wendell Holmes
