Responsible living in an age of excuses1992

Most Christians desire to live as God intended - rich, full lives in His service. And we can. But only if we keep guard against the things in life that would drag us down. Do you know someone who manages to keep a bright, positive, optimistic outlook on life despite circumstances that are far from ideal? "What does he have to smile about?" you may ask. Kurt Bruner answers by noting that these people are the ones who swim upstream - the ones who don't use circumstances or other people as an excuse for living down-in-the-dumps.
