Excerpt From 'The Source of My Strength by Charles F. Stanley

"[size=x-large]I[/size]n many ways, living within God's will is like riding a raft on a stream. There are rocks to avoid. There are times when you must put your oar in the water to help guide the raft into the current or away from danger. There are places to stop along the journey. But overall, there is no striving in floating downstream. The stream is one of God's creations; it flows according to God's principles. You must simply be willing to put yourself in God's raft and trust Him to give you the strength and wisdom to make a successful journey in the way that He has ordained for you to travel."

Amen SS! A very good and knowledgable post! Floating down stream sure is easier than going upstream and fighting against the currents (satan's evil) by following Jesus as He guides and leads us on the right way to go! God Bless! Betty
