This weekend was certainly an adventure to say the least. For the last 5 or 6 years we have carried our Student Ministry group whitewater rafting down the Ocoee River in Tennessee, and this has to be one of my favorite weekends of the year! I love going up and spending a couple of hours on a pretty fast river getting caught up in all the adventure and excitement that wait around each bend in the river, it is truly riveting! Sure we don't sleep very much while we are gona and I am usually Dawg (worse than dog) tired when I get home but I am already ready to go again. What if we took our relationship with God as seriously as we love the adventure of rafting? I mean when you have a relationship with the creator you are filled with adventure and excitement and who knows what He has in store for us around the bend! Your new life with Christ is supposed to be an adventure each day so let me ask you this question, is your life filled with Class III-IV rapids, or is your raft easing along in a slow moving flow? I can hear the fast water just ahead of you...are you ready???
