Virtue

In the beginning years of launching our church, I was standing in a small, congested hallway where our bathrooms and steps met. I was having a fun conversation with a group of teenage girls, talking about life, school, parents, and of course, boys. We were laughing and joking around when one of the girls mentioned something about 'happily ever after.' I made the comment that happily ever after was for everyone. One by one each of the girls concluded that happily ever after doesn't exist. I said, 'What do you mean happily ever after doesn't exist? I'm living it right now.' They responded with, 'Happily ever after only works for you.'
