I recently read the following in an airline magazine: “Children smile about 400 times a day. That’s quite a workout for their little facial muscles, but hey, smiles are contagious, right?

A Teenager Rocks Out

The classic account of David prevailing over Goliath has been metaphorically immortalized not only in sports, but also in many seemingly impossible situations in life. Whatever the “Goliath” in your life, you can prevail over it if you build your vision of God to where David’s was. When he compared Goliath to the living God he knew, the Big G …
