Nobody plans to make mistakes. They just happen. There's money we wish we hadn't spent, relationships we should have avoided, jobs we'd like to forget. The list is endless. But God promises something much better---and his Word provides a filter to successfully evaluate every opportunity, friendship, and decision in your life!
The question is not, "Is it legal?" "Is it culturally okay?" "Is it allowable?" "Is it acceptable?" "Is it on sale?"
The bank loaned me the money. Zero percent financing. Everybody is doing it. It must be okay.
What God wants us to ask is, "In light of my past experience, current circumstances, and future hopes, goals, and dreams, 'What is the wise thing for me to do?'" This question will save you from a lifetime of guilt, shame, and regrets.

Remembering 9/11
September 11 was a wake-up call for America: a call to think about life and death; a call to cherish family and friends a call to share the Good News of Jesus; and a call to pray.
Spend time today- prayer or a moment of silence in honoring the heroism shown by our fellow Americans that day.
We thank God for the blessings of freedom that we enjoy, and for the men and women who sacrifice to help us keep those freedoms.
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? No, in all things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:35;37-39
