Challenges from Josh Ross...

Read Phil. 3:7-11 everyday:

7But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ 9and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. 10I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Ask these questions:

1. What makes me come alive?
2. What is the center of my life?
3. What am I passionate about & how does this line up with Jesus' character?
4. What is my contribution in this life?

Hey everyone, have you asked these questions of yourself yet??? Wow, they are powerful! I know I don't want to coast, I want to make a difference with my time here on the planet--don't you? I dare you to stop today and seriously ask all 4 questions--write your answers down somewhere. This is important stuff Josh is placing in front of us. Let's not just "show up" each day--let's live lives that matter, and with passion!
