Being aware of the value locked up within decisions can truly add significance to your life. Right now, you stand at the threshold of a decision that can alter your life.

In other words, today's decision determines tomorrows success.
You and I are only one decision away from changing everything. One KEY decision that produces excellence & success is the decision to be determined. Determination is the driving force that promotes persistence, faithfulness & commitment to oneself or others & is the key to the attainment of a desired result.
This law is UNIVERSAL...remember that you are only one decision away from success or failure. You choose!

The greatest joy of Spring is how it so sweetly, so superbly, so equisitely reveals the final, victorious scene in The Hope of Our Salvation. From parks and pastures of dull, dreary, seemingly dead soil spring the first miraculous promises of flowers, fruits, and fragrances. My faith in an invisible, gentle, piercing Power to ever renew ME grows newer, stronger roots each an every first day of Spring.
As I gaze out an open Bible fellowship window, I'm reminded of that old Mac Davis muse to "Stop and Smell the Roses." And in the next moment, on a whisper-soft Spring breeze, I hear from the Holy Spirit of our Risen Lord,
