"So here is my question: Are you living your life in a way that is worth telling stories about?
Maybe it's time to quit running and time to start chasing. Try something new. Take some risks. Start doing some things that are worth recounting in jaw-dropping detail....
Too many of us pray as if God's primary objective is to keep us from getting scared. But the goal of life is not the elimination of fear. The goal is to muster the moral courage to chase lions. "
In a pit with a lion on a snowy day, Mark Batterson, Page 56
P.s
You might want to look up 2 Samuel 23:20-21- the extraordinary verses on which this book is based and then buy a copy and read it.
