Dying to Self, Living for Christ

"When my flesh yearns for some prohibited thing, I must die. When called to do something I don't want to do, I must die. When I wish to be selfish and serve no one, I must die.

And just minutes ago (after many hours of scheduled blackout), NASA received a signal from New Horizons that everything on the spacecraft was functioning normally. This means that the spacecraft can start sending back pictures of its close encounter tomorrow morning.
