 "I'm not going to let all of this commercialism ruin my Christmas." Charlie Brown uttered those words in 1965 in the classic, A Charlie Brown Christmas. What would he think today? Don't let the overwhelming negative spirit looming these days take over. Remember who you are, and what a privilege it is to get to be alive today. The Kingdom needs us. We were made for this!

Relentless Drift
Daily Life Quote: "There is a time when we must finally choose the course we will follow, or the relentless drift of events will make the decision." Herbert V. Prochnow
Daily Life Verse: "Choose today whom you will serve." (Joshua 24:15)
Daily Life Thought: God is speaking to all of us; the saved and the unsaved. He doesn't want any one of His children to perish. Yet there comes a day when we must decide to heed His voice. Once we do, there is everlasting life as a reward. Jesus then tells us, "my sheep hear my voice." He continues to speak to us, however the communication is now different. Because He wants the best for His children, He is always calling us to deeper communion with Him. He is continuously nudging, and prodding, and whispering directions to the inner most places in our soul. The tragedy is, many Christians only heed the first call to life, setting out from there on a journey of relentless drifting, ending up at the conclusion of life looking backwards regretfully. Philosopher Jim Rohn said, "regret weighs pounds, discipline weighs ounces." What lies ahead of us might seem like a lot of work, but the weight of regret at the end of life is a burden none should bear.
Daily Life Question:
Are there places in life where you have been drifting? Is there a different course you could choose now that would greatly minimize regret later?
