I want to thank whoever was responsible for inviting Greg Mortenson to speak at Tuesday’s forum. I have to admit that I usually verify the identity of the devotional speaker, and if it isn’t a prominent religious or political leader, then I don’t find time to go. I hadn’t heard of Greg Mortenson and wasn’t planning on listening. As luck would have it, I found myself in a location where the devotional was being broadcast and was able to hear his phenomenal message. He is a great example of Matthew 10:39. So often we hear great words at devotionals, and here was an example of doing great things. Thank you for inviting him to speak to us.
