" Instead, finding a faith should help you to be freer, more full of life, more filled with joy, peace and love than you would ever imagine. And those qualities, in abundance, will only make you stronger and more capable of living a wild and adventurous life.

And what is even cooler is that Jesus turns out to be so much more than just a guide or a pointer of the way. He is also a backbone, a companion and a friend. When I look at my own heroes, I realize there aren’t many leaders who haven’t at some time quietly bent their knee and looked upwards for strength, resolve and peace.

Great men and women know their own frailty and have the humility to accept help to empower them to greatness. Be among their number.

Pioneers always take bold steps to explore new territory - you never know what you might find.

By the way, it is also good to know that faith isn’t one-sided. As Christ said: ‘I have come to seek and save.’

He is out looking for us, too.

So be brave and let Him do his side of the bargain. I call it the quest to be found.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

¹ I really recommend the book The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey to help get a better picture of this guy who hit Earth promising life in abundance. I mean, what the heck is that all about?! "
