Let's Roll !
"Let's roll" is a colloquialism that has been used extensively as a command to move and start an activity, attack, mission or project.
On September 11, 2001, Todd Beamer was a passenger on the hijacked United Airlines Flight 93.While on the phone with someone on the ground he said that some of the other passengers were planning to attack the hijackers and regain control of the aircraft. Beamer's last audible words were "Are you ready? Okay. Let's roll."
In the 2002 State of the Union address, President George W.Bush would use these words: "For too long our culture has said, “If it feels good, do it.” Now America is embracing a new ethic and a new creed: “Let’s roll.”
Lives have been hijacked by sin. Christians are in a battle for the eternal life of others around them. Family, friends, the stranger on the street, even those you call enemies.

Faith that does not work is a faith that doesn't work!”
If you’re really serious about a sport, you’ll be willing to sweat—to work out... to run, jump, ride, shoot, tackle, swim—and you’ll dress the part! So also do faith and “working out” go hand-in-hand. For too many believers, faith resembles an indoor bicycle, motionless, neglected, and covered in dust. But the Apostle James, our personal trainer in the faith, is ready for all of us to blow off the dust and work up a sweat as we take our Christianity out into the open.
There is a familiar old hymn that encourages us.
"We’ll work till Jesus comes,
We’ll work till Jesus comes,
We’ll work till Jesus comes,
And we’ll be gathered home."
