Reflection Starter from Charles Swindoll

"How easy it is to be 'average.' The ranks of the mediocre are crowded with status quo thinkers and predictable workers. How rare are those who live differently! Ask God to do a new work in you this day, to lift your sights above the expected, to develop in you the qualities that make for excellence. And as he lifts your sights, watch for those who may be struggling in their quest . . . perhaps dangerously near giving up. May He grant you a sensitive heart and a ready word of encouragement." - Rev. Charles Swindoll (in Quest for Character)
