11/13/2010 Status IIThis year I’m closing in on almost 150,000 air miles—which is like flying around the world six times. I try to have everything laid out the night before I am travel because it speeds up getting ready to go the next day. Recently I had trouble checking in online. I phoned an Alaska airlines agent and found out my ticket was hollow; I was scheduled but the fare was unpaid. So, I called up my deputy and after some research she was able to find out the cause of the problem and fix it. Because she helped, I was able to print my ticket.

10/26/2006 PreciousDaniel and Joseph are two of my greatest Biblical heroes. I admire their impeccable character, inspiring faith, strong understanding of God’s sovereignty and consistent obedience to God’s will. Both of them excelled as leaders. Daniel was so highly esteemed by God that when he asked Him questions the Lord dispatched Gabriel, one of the most powerful angelic beings, to answer his concerns. Imagine praying and then having an angel walk in your room with God’s response!

He wants a new one or to use his dad’s oversized racquet for his upcoming tennis class. John presses David repeatedly on why the racquet he has is not good enough. Tears began to form and tumble down his son’s cheeks. David wrestles with an inward battle John struggles to comprehend. “Son, if you won’t tell me what is wrong, how can I meet your request?” David, with a quivering voice tells him that kids would make fun of his old racquet just like they make fun of him for being short. And then his father, also a short man, understands.

I asked an older friend known for his wisdom to meet with me to discuss the topic of serving. On the day we met, he looked me in the eye and said, “Danny, we don’t need to talk about serving, we need to talk about pride.” He then lovingly shared three specific examples of pride he observed in my life from one dinner conversation in his home.
