As Christians, we recite scripture, we learn the stories, we celebrate the holidays, but do we take up our own crosses? Do we strive each day to be living Proof of the Promise?

"The more I thought about it, the question I asked myself switched from, “What can I do?” to “What do I want? What can I actually handle? What would I love waking up to every day? What would my life need to look like for that to happen?”

And I froze. I had not visited those words in what felt like forever. Have you ever felt this way before, CEO? Where one question breaks something open in you that makes you see everything differently?

Sometimes when life throws us curveballs--when God allows the very unexpected to happen--it can stop us dead in our tracks.
