This week we are going to look at the different types of precipitation we experience and examine how each type forms.
Next on our list of precipitation types is sleet or ice pellets.
This form of precipitation is created when raindrops freeze in the air before they reach the ground.

The idea of Alberta opting out of the Canada Pension Plan isn't moving ahead — at least for now.

"I'm not seeing that there's an appetite to put it to the people at the moment," Smith told reporters at an unrelated press conference Thursday.

Courage
Joshua 1:9
Someone once wrote, "Sow a thought, reap an act. Sow an act, reap a habit. Sow a habit, reap your character. Sow your character, reap your destiny."
Standing tall when tested takes courage—constant, relentless, never-give-up courage! You can be sure that the old flesh will fight for its arousal and satisfaction. All it takes is a little rationalization—just a little. Just look the other way. Just shrug it off. Don't sweat it. And before long you have a rattlesnake in your sleeping bag.
