Good Afternoon. Here is a great thought for the day: The African impala can jump to a height of over 10 feet and cover a distance of greater than 30 feet. Yet these magnificent creatures can be kept in an enclosure in any zoo with a 3-foot wall. The animals will not jump if they cannot see where their feet will fall. They have no faith, and that lack of faith keeps them from reaching their goal of freedom — even though it was easily within reach. Faith is the ability to trust what we cannot see, and with faith we are freed from the flimsy enclosures of life. Only fear allows us to be trapped.
"Each morning is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When the sun rises tomorrow this day will be gone forever, in its place will be something you have left — may it be something good. Follow your heart, it knows what to do."
