In search of the sun. I love a good play on words. Many want to go to the beach or the mountains on a beautiful sunny day. But, what happens when the trip is made and the sun goes down or a storm sets in? Do we still enjoy the journey? Those with the right attitude and character do. We make our choices. Choices make us.
Following Jesus is not always sunshine. Yes, the Son did rise; but before He did, it got quite stormy. We make a commitment. We get all in. Then, comes the test. Do you really stand for what you believe in? Are you willing to get some skin in the game? Because, if you are--it's gonna cost you.
Ask the disciples that followed Jesus. Ask those of us that still call ourselves His disciples. We will tell you the same. Christianity is not a game. Life is not a spectator sport. Life has ups and downs--prepare yourself for them.

Mark 15:33 (KJV) "And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour."
The end is not necessarily the end. It may look like the end. It may feel like the end. However in reality, it may just be the beginning of something wonderful. Keep searching for the Son...life is beach.
