To infinity... but beyond?

Dude... will you fight Nazi's, crack your bullwhip, take on sword wielding bad guys, swim through the Mediterranean on the back of a Nazi U-Boat, and then try to blow up the Ark if I asked you to do it?

Absolutely.

Would you dig a tunnel under four hundred feet of earth and help some 200 prisoners of war escape through war-torn Europe during World War II even if it meant getting caught in a barbed wire fence while trying to jump it on a motorcycle?

Yes. Especially that last part.

Would you go toe to toe with the dark lord of the Sith with nothing but a lightsaber, the force, and an especially loyal R2 unit at your side even if it meant learning dark family secrets and possibly losing a limb?

That would be very cool.

Would you carry the Ring through thousands of miles of muck, murder, mayhem and orcs and finally climb Mt. Doom and throw the Ring into the fires, only to be possibly consumed by lava afterwards?

One does not simply walk into Mordor, but I would do it for you on my honor.

Would you go and have coffee with a bunch of men, tell them about me, maybe pray with them, console them, and ask them to find a place in their hearts for a relationship with me?

WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH! Let's not get too hasty now...what you ask of me is such a burden?!

Well, RR, it did occur to me that most of us are very much like Peter in our love for Jesus - we will fight the entire Roman Army if asked - but all Jesus really wants us to do is feed his flock.

Christ spread utmost love; unconditional and taught us about pureness and also about faith in the Eternal Father. It is beautiful! this is beautiful! Hope for each person and the Kingdom of God.

Much love from Trinidad and Tobago
