ANNOUNCEMENTS: Look around and think about who is NOT present. Take time today to invite back out those PAX (Kotters) who have not posted in a while. An evening (or even morning) text can go a long way! (Editor's note: It's a bold move, but so can showing up in their driveway and laying on the horn until they come out.)

COT: Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

Perseverance is such an important quality as we endure life's burdens. remember that it doesn't take much effort to do what everyone else is doing. A dead fish can float downstream; it takes a live one to persevere and swim upstream. It's too easy to give up and allow the stream to float us along, and we see those who have succumbed to that temptation every day. Be uncommon and push back. Persevere! And understand that those burdens we all must address are actually gifts that mature and complete us.
