In 1972, there was a plane crash in the Andes mountains. The plane crashed and only 29 survived; they survived to wait patiently to be rescued. Eight days later, 8 more lives had been taken by an avalanche, and there were 21 remaining survivors. They were waiting for their lifeline, and it finally came over the CB radio, “the search party is canceled.” Some began to sob and mourn as they realized; NOBODY WAS COMING TO THE RESCUE.
A few days ago I wrote a blog about responsibility. The truth of the matter is this, you have the guide book. You have the answer. You know where to find the truth to all issues. You have the Bible. You are not going to “get lucky.” If your life is going to get better, it’s because you realize you have to make the decision to get better.
You have all the answers to be rescued in the Bible. If you need help and need to figure out what your next step is or your first step, then feel free to write in here and ask.
I find the harder I work, the more luck I have. – Thomas Jefferson
(If you want to read the entire story, read the book here. The Reader’s Digest version is that 2 men hiked through for the next ten day and survived.)
