Costa Rica Has Low Terrorism Risk

It is nice to live in one of the 10 most low terrorism risk countries, according to the UK’s Daily Mail online news.

COUNTRIES WITH A HIGH TERRORISM RISK
And the high risk of terrorism includes my beloved Gambia West Africa, I’m sorry to say.
I’m surprised that parts of the U.S. and Europe are not included, but frequency may be a factor.
And what about this proximity to the equator? It reminds me of mission board’s 10/40 Window of non-Christians.

A Grand Exit or Powerful New Start?

That’s the name of today’s post in my His Spirit Blog which again today relates to my decision about Costa Rica. Today’s sermon was a stretch to relate to my decision, but in my mind during the service I was doing that. As Elisha ripped his clothing to pieces I thought about how hard it was going to be to get rid of all my stuff. But also like Elisha, to not change will keep me in my old unproductive rut. This post is based on 2 Kings 2:1-12.
