"'As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live."
The events of this week leave us sober and contemplative. We can certainly be glad if the threat of evil against us has been lessened. We do not, however, celebrate. Rather we wish that those who chose a path of destruction would choose life.
Scouts of all nations and all walks of life are learning everyday the value of choosing a path and then working to stay on it. We call that path the Scout Oath and the Scout Law. We learn through experience how the choices that we make shape and influence our future.
Scouting can teach us discipline and encourage us in service. Each of these traits can lead us to a life of fulfillment and blessing.
Think of a way to encourage a fellow Scout or adult Leader during your next Troop meeting. Build on encouragement and life.
