better days challenge ...

better days // starting oct 23rd from cross point church on vimeo

i've mentioned it before ... w+i have been away from home each and every weekend this month! that's crazy. more crazy is that i've only been at our home church 1 sunday this month. thanks to twitter i found out about a challenge from my pastor this past sunday ... and i've decided to extend the challenge to you all:

the media today is filled w/ fear. there's poverty, war, crime, political unrest ... even natural disasters all constantly playing over and over in our minds. as a result, we're left w/ a mindset shaped more by the media than by scripture. pastor pete has challenged us to list 3 things each day that we are grateful for ... 3 things that breathe hope into our lives during such an unstable time in our world. what an amazing challenge! catch the full message here.

psalm 103:2
let all that i am praise the Lord;
may i never forget the good things He does for me.
