Moleskin:
A pastor was talking to one of two brothers. Their father was a full blown alcoholic and died several years ago. This brother spent his entire life helping people fight alcohol addiction, and started organizations that helped families deal with alcohol and substance abuse. The preacher asked him why he lived this way. The brother answered “With a father like mine, what choice did I have?”
The pastor met with the other brother. This brother was in the hospital dying from health issues related to alcohol abuse. After talking with him, the preacher asked the brother why he lived this way. The brother answered, “With a father like mine, what choice did I have?”
We all have a choice in how we handle trials that come our way. We can choose to blame our circumstances and allow ourselves to go down a path that leads to destruction, or we can rise up and face our challenges and make a positive impact to those around us as a result of those struggles. Love that I have my bros in F3 to help keep me on the right path!
A great Monday with 8 FNGs (and counting with Canterbury Backblast still to come) – 3’s OUT
