Driving to work the other day I hit a pothole and, like most people, I reacted angrily. “Why can’t they do something about this?” I mumbled under my breathe. But this time instead of complaining I thought maybe I could learn a lesson or two from the pothole.  Here’s what I learned:

                    Have you seen the insurance commercial on TV that shows a talking pot hole?  “Did I do that?  Let me call someone for you!  Oh, I don’t have a cellphone.”  The talking pothole just causes problems and does nothing to fix them.  People have built all sorts of roads: roads of commerce and conquest.

                    HARDSHIPS FURTHER HIS KINGDOM
Bill Hybels' The Power of a Whisper (p.110-111):
 
"Don't ever buy into the idea that everything God prompts His followers to do will be uncomplicated or low-cost.  Sometimes God asks His children to carry heavy loads, as He did with the apostle Paul.  But even--and

                    SOME GOOD ADVICE
   I am still waiting for my father to talk to me about sex and success, money and marriage, religion and raising kids.  Since he died in 1991, I guess I don’t have much chance of ever benefiting from all of the lessons he learned in life.  It’s not that he was a bad dad; he was

                    I want to give you a silly illustration of one way this can work. When I was a teenager and just starting to enjoy coffee, I liked to take a cup of coffee with me wherever I went. Of course, those of you who’ve seen me play softball are well aware that I have trouble walking and talking at the same
