I learned that the ancient Egyptians believed that your eternity would be decided on how you answered 2 questions at the end of your life. #1. Did you find JOY while on the Earth? #2. Did SOMEONE ELSE find joy because of you? Yesterday afternoon (after a hot air balloon ride w/my kids...way cool), I slowed down and chilled in a lawn chair in the backyard and just watched my 3 kids play in a small blue swimming pool. I allowed joy to fill my heart as I began to tell God how grateful I am for all that HE has given me. I have found Joy in my life and want to make it a point to be a person that helps others find joy as well. My prayer is that all that I do point to the giver of JOY, Jesus Christ.
(Can you guess the movie where I learned about the 2 Egyptian questions?

I'm guessing Prince of Egypt as your source.
2 questions reminds me of:
"A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove. But the world may be different, because I was important in the life of a boy."
-- Forest Witcraft Scouting magazine, October 1950.
The Bucket List! Yeaaah! It's a great, heartwarming movie.
Josh and I just started attending C3 (we're the big comic book/movie nerds), and I've been checking out your blog recently.
Kelly was great, btw. She's a very compassionate speaker. Have a safe and wonderful trip, and we'll see ya on Sunday.
