LIMIT

After the massive recent failures of NASA in terms of safety and advancement, someone editorialized: 

'Our problems must be solved, but not at the expense of exploration.  Exploration is not a luxury.  It defines us as a civilization.  It directly or indirectly benefits every member of society.  It yields an inspirational dividend whose impact on our self-image, confidence, and economic and geopolitical stature is immeasurable.'

D. Browning took that statement and made it even better and more relevant to us.  In light of where God is taking us as a church, I embrace his tweak:

'Our [church] problems must be solved, but not at the expense of exploration [reaching out].  Exploration [outreach] is not a luxury.  It defines us as a civilization [church].  It directly or indirectly benefits every member of society [the world].  It yields an inspirational dividend whose impact on our self-image, confidence, and economic and geopolitical stature is immeasurable [we are blessed and it's a lot of fun when the arrows are pointed out and we are aligned with our Creator's agenda].'

Sky's the limit.

And be blessed.

Yes, It is certainly no fun when the arrows are pointed at us.
