Lead Well Today
Everyone is called to lead someone, something, somewhere. It could be your family, your job, your church, or your local sports league. We are all called to lead others toward the goodness of the Gospel of Jesus.

Invest in Today and Tomorrow
There is a well known Latin term “carpe diem” which means to “seize the day.” It is used to urge someone to make the most of the present time and give little thought to the future. Enjoy the pleasures of the present without any concern for tomorrow. It is one option of how to view one’s approach to life.

Focus – the center of interest or activity, or directed attention.

Think about that – adapt to the prevailing level of light and become able to see clearly.
