Monday's Post - Taking Risks

I actually read this on the package of a Superman costume I purchased for my son last year: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."

Really... did we really need this warning label?

Then again, I was the kid jumping off the roof with a pillowcase. I guess some people are just risk-takers - or perhaps, just have low I.Q.'s? I dunno.

Risk-taking for God's Kingdom, however, is not about crazy personalities. It's about seeing the gain of the risk as bigger than the loss. The gain is touched lives - families stronger, neighbors cared for, communities served, hearts transformed.

Take a risk.
