Being a Lion Chaser

Right now I am reading "In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day". One of the best books ever!

What if the life you really want, and the future God wants for you, is hiding right now in your biggest problem, your worst failure...your greatest fear?
I'm about half way through the book at this point but I have already made a concious decission to be a Lion Chaser from here on out! Here is a couple of phrases from the book that got me:
  • You can do nothing wrong and still do nothing right.
  • When we don't have the guts to step out in faith and chase lions, then God is robbed of the glory that rightfully belongs to Him.
  • Don't let mental lions keep you from experiencing everything God has to offer.
  • Opportunities often look like insurmountable obstacles.
  • If you don't have any problems you don't have any potential. Here's why. Your ability to help others heal is limited to where you have been wounded.

To Be Continued . . . . . . . . .

Hey Becky, it's me Ms Trixie. Just found your blog and just wanted to say hi. I haven't seen you in so long, but I want you to know that I will always remember you with lots of love. You did so much for my family, and I still appreciate all that you did. Aimee' has told me of your missionary work, and I pray that all goes well with you. Maybe one day our paths will cross again, and I will be so happy to see you. Keep up the splendid works that you are doing.
Sending hugs to you,
