WE ARE HAVING A GOOD DAY!

I'm on a partial vacation/partial speaking assignment. This morning I golfed. I took a 10 on a par 5 hole. That is terrible. I took an 8 on a par 4 hole. That is terrible. And do you know what? No one cares including me!

I encourage us to avoid getting upset over things which matter little. To have a nice round of golf would be very nice. A lot of prisoners would have loved to have taken a 10 on a par 5 this morning, but by the grace of God I got to. While I could take the time to bemoan a shot or twelve, there are those in the emergency rooms panicked over doctor's news. There are bigger things in life than what we tend to think make or break our days.

Be encouraged. Today is a good one because God is in it....regardless of what you shot. I don't think it's what you know but who all you get to know because of the lavish family-hood of being in the kingdom.

Rich? We are the richest people on earth because our hearts take their signals from heaven. We are having a good day!

Par x 2 = Par for me

So, I'd be pretty happy about that 8 on the par 4...

I've been with some guys who kick their bags and throw their clubs. I just tell them, "Why are you doing that? You're not that good."
