Think About It

"And I pray this: that your love will keep on growing in knowledge and every kind of discernment, so that you can determine what really matters and can be pure and blameless in the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and promise of God." Philippians 1:9-11 (HCSB)

Just an old ski bum.

I didn’t move to Salt Lake City until I was a half century old. I think that is a good thing. If I would have been younger the temptation to be a ski bum might have been more than I could have withstood. The snow, 456 inches this winter, has settled to 137 inches of base. No wind, warm sunshine, short lift lines. Wow, what a day. Jen and I skied this morning. 27-37 degrees. Right now in my front yard it is 47. (8:21 pm) I could have played golf when we got down this afternoon. If I had younger knees that is.

Utah snow is not a secret though. On the lift we rode with people from Delaware, Boston, England, Pittsburg, Florida, Wisconsin, and one guy from Salt Lake City. And we only skied half of the day. The guy from Delaware was here for the 4th time this season and has 3 more trips planned before the end of April. (a computer business software writer)

The Cost Of Discipleship

Being a disciple means loving Jesus more than any other person.
Being a disciple means wanting Jesus more than any other thing.
Being a disciple means following Jesus instead of any other way.

Jesus said, "Do you really want to be a disciple? Then count the cost."
Luke 14:26-35
