If you have ever watched “Finding Nemo”…you recognize that line. I think that line maybe applies to spiritual disciplines. Some days it’s hard to engage with the Bible or prayer. But we have to “just keep swimming”. Today, the verse has been rolling around in my head again…”continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is Christ who works in you to will and act according to his good purpose.” (Philippians 2:12) Even when we don’t have the desire or the will to pursue God…he gives us both the desire and the power. “For God has not given us a spirit of fear. But a spirit of power of love and self control.” Claim it today.
Question of the day: Would you rather have an annoying headache or an annoying cough?

Thanks for the encouraging word. It was much needed today.
I'd much rather have a bad cough. At least when you have a bad cough, you seem sick and people feel bad for you. If you have a headache, it's more like you're a big whiner.
well, i think i'd have to go with the annoying cough, i absolutely hate headaches....i get them all of the time....and they never go away no matter what kinds of drugs i take...(no need to worry they are all legal and i don't overdose on them...so...)...scott thanks for that message today..it was very helpful.....and very encouraging

I don't know I would probably want a headache if I would have to be quiet like in church or something. otherwise I would want a cough.
