Miraras hacia atr s con anhelo a los riesgos que no tomaste, las oportunidades que desaprovechaste, los sue os que no perseguiste. Deja de huirle a lo que m s te asusta y empieza a perseguir las oportunidades decretadas por Dios que se te cruzan en el camino. Con un le n en medio de un foso est inspirado por uno de los actos m s valientes pero menos conocido en las Escrituras, un acto audaz y bendito que no dejo remordimientos: Bena as persigui un le n hasta una fosa. Despu s, a pesar de la nieve y lo resbaloso de la tierra, el agarro al le n y lo mato (2 Samuel 23:20-21).

You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path. In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day is inspired by one of the most obscure yet courageous acts recorded in Scripture, a blessed and audacious act that left no regrets: "Benaiah chased a lion down into a pit. Then, despite the snow and slippery ground, he caught the lion and killed it" (2 Samuel 23:20 -21).
