Dear Friend of Life:
The day that you receive this, Julia and I will be returning from the great state of Alaska! We were so grateful to be sponsored by Alaska Right to Life at their annual convention — to share the message of peaceful Sidewalk Advocacy and how it, indeed, gets results!
One of the things I love most about traveling the country is meeting God’s people in different corners of the world, and seeing the same spirit, drive and passion to help mothers-in-crisis and bring an end to abortion! It’s truly inspiring! It continues to fuel my belief that abortion, one day, will come to end in the United States and in turn, inspire others to follow suit.
As we return home, I hope you’ll join me in a prayer that we’ll continue to join together from across the Body of Christ — no matter where we’re geographically located — and witness, by the grace of God, the day that abortion comes to an end.
So, here’s to continuing to save lives, transform hearts and end abortion through the grace of God — may it come quickly and put us all out of business!

WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL (FEBRUARY 1-14, 2015): “RUNNING THE RACE”
by Jeff Reedy, Shipping Coordinator & DFW LIFE Runners Co-Leader, Sidewalk Advocates for Life
Verse(s): “With so many witnesses in a great cloud all around us, we too, then, should throw off everything that weighs us down and the sin that clings so closely, and with perseverance keep running in the race which lies ahead of us.” — Hebrews 12:1
Reflection: There are many calls on our time and energy every day. Everything demands that we give it our attention, and never lets up.
But God is calling us, too. He calls us to be salt and light in this world. To run the race He sets before us. And that means finding what truly matters… what is the highest priority… and putting that first. It also means saying no to smaller demands that are less important.
Faith Challenge: This week, let us stop for a moment and think what truly matters in our lives. Ask for God’s wisdom in determining where we should place our focus.
And then, when we are clear which direction we’re going… RUN.
