Today, I’d like to share with you something my husband wrote. I quite enjoyed it and hope you will too 😊
“I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth I will apply ALL my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.” – Og Mandino
“Do all things without grumbling or disputing; so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,”
Be a mountain and a light. One to stand tall like a mountain, not shrinking back. The other trying to get people to do things as well as possible in order to be a light. I think if anyone takes a humble attitude, applies ones self, and just puts forth their best at all times, keeping righteousness in mind, you will be that light. If my mind is always on doing my best, even my worst stands to be better. Working harder, training harder, keeping my anger in check, and being open to reproof. Something good will always come through. Getting my point across in an argument may not always apply. Sometimes it has to wait. Sometimes being the guy who cleans the bathroom, even though you’re trained for something greater, is something you need to do. Later, when your word is needed, or your special skills can put together something others know little of, it will be your time to shine even brighter. I really believe that very soon all our knowledge and skills will be in need. Living in a time where good and bad are getting twisted. Right and wrong is always up for a vote. And always getting twisted. Standards are being set by the few who have lowered the morals of the nation. There will be a time where it will come to a head. Right will finally confront all the wrongs. And win.
