I love the Internet
As I was driving to Gloucester this morning, thinking about the fact that I was leaving for Africa in less than one week, and what that all meant, I was listening to a Dave Crowder song. For some reason, the lyrics I was hearing really caught my attention, "We all want to get to heaven but we don't want to die".

So, being the Internet hound that I am, tonight I proceeded to search on those lyrics in hopes of finding out who was the first to come out with that statement. Although I don't think I found my answer, I did find this little piece. It was the text of the Commencement address at Stanford by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005. In it, he uses the same quote. I found the rest of his story fascinating. Give it a read...

What Matters

As you let God's design be worked out in you, you will see its impact in others and for generations.

Sometimes it's not about your ability to do something, but your availability to do it that is more important.
