What kind of danger would you allow
yourself to be in for the ones you love? If all your human family members were
out safely from a furious house fire, but the family canine (Wags) was stuck on
the second floor (whimpering in fear). How far would you go to make sure He got
out safely to? Would you jeopardize your life?
A leisurely afternoon of canoeing with
the family goes horribly wrong when your water vessel upturns in the deep,
raging waters. Of your other two family members (of the wife, who is your very
life and the ten year-old son, who brings pride to your heart), you are the
only one that can swim. Only one of your family members can be saved by you. In
a split second decision, who will it be?
No more horrendous, discouraging scenarios
that are even upsetting me. When you are in the midst of multiple trials, what
comes out-gold or ashes? Do you go out of your way (inconvenience yourself) to
help the ones in your life that mean the most to you?
Life may not always be the best for
them either. How could a kind card, phone call, text, or e-mail make all the
difference? Many times my wife texts me a prayer for a good day; it’s a great
pick-me-up usually when it is needed the most. The question has always been
this. What can you do to be a blessing to someone? It’s the one risk you can
afford to take.
