Today is unique! It has never occurred and it will never be repeated. At midnight it will end, quietly, suddenly, totally. Forever. But the hours between now and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities.

The longer I live the more I believe that the greatest enemy of a victorious Christian life is passivity.
