Discouragement

September 5, 2007

So, how do you deal with discouragement? I shared with you last week that there are a few quotes that have been of great help to me. I mentioned these three."Never doubt in the dark what you believed in the light.""A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.""Fear sees the obstacles, but faith sees the opportunity."To these, I would like to share a few more that I have gone back to more than once and just found to be sources of encouragement to my life. Here they are.· "There are two quick ways to disaster: Taking nobody's advice and taking everybody's advice."· "He who never walks except where he sees other men's tracks will make no discoveries."· "The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight but has no vision." (Helen Keller)· "There are no victories at bargain prices." (Dwight D. Eisenhower)I have at least two others that I would like to share with you. They are a bit longer so I will save them. Then, I would like to share with you why these particular quotes mean something to me.By the way, last Sunday was just an incredible day at Woolsey Baptist Church . God has been so good to us. We should offer Him our praise and worship Him from thankful and joyful hearts.

Until Sunday,
Pastor Chuck
