We cannot Live in the 5th Act on our own.  We must surround ourselves with people encouraging our every move, pushing us when we need it and crying with us when we make mistakes. The 5th Act is not a monologue, we're in this story together.

Let us not give up meeting together,
as some are in the habit of doing,
but let us encourage one another - and
all the more as you see the Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:25

hands holding little treeThe story about Jesus feeding the 5000 people with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish is legendary. Even those who don't consider themselves religious know about it. How many of us, however, have ever really pondered its significance and its message to us? Why did Jesus perform this miracle twice, in almost identical fashion?

truesuperhero.jpg Darkness overcame the world
Suffocating all faith
And hope just lost
Not one could utter a single sound
All who tried were thrown to the ground
In despair
But wait
Behold
What might appear?
But light
A sight
Could it be?
No way
With shining armor
A kindly face
You know youre saved
At last, at last
Our superhero is here to save the day!
Thank you Jesus, the true Superhero.

Dreams are often romantic ideas of a life most of us are unwilling to pay the price to achieve.  It is easy for us to daydream about being rich and having the "perfect" life.  It is fun to think about being famous: an astronaut, a professional athlete, or for the more ambitious, the President.  But when we have these dreams for our lives, how often do we think about the blood, sweat, and tears that we will have to endure in order to taste them?  Why is it most people give up on their dreams?  Why do so few get to live out their dreams? 

Most people would look at many of us and say that we are all dreamers (or better yet, visionaries), but when you look at our lives, why have they not gone the way most of us dreamed?

a2ndglance.jpgOne of my favorite miracles in the Bible is the exodus from Egypt.  It is just amazing to see what G-d can do to help or save His people.  Most of us have seen the "Ten Commandments," or "Prince of Egypt," but have we ever considered what it took for the exodus to happen in the first place, and then to go on for over forty years in the desert?  A few years ago, a member of the Israeli government did just that.  Here are some of his findings:

First, there were somewhere between two and four million Jews fleeing Egypt on that day.  This would take an effort like nothing ever seen.
