A Man Must Rise By His Own

Young People Are Going To Go To Someone, Somewhere. And We Had Better See That That 'someone' Is Us When The Opportunity Is Ours, For There Will Come A Time When We Will Wish They Would Come, And Do We Know But That The Interruption We Now Impatiently Put Off May Be The Most Important Thing We Could Be Doing At This Particular Time?

Greatness Is Best Measured By How Well An Individual Responds To The Happenings In Life That Appear Totally Unfair, Unreasonable, And Undeserved. Sometimes We Are Inclined To Put Up With A Situation Rather Than Endure. To Endure Is To Bear Up Under, To Stand Firm Against, To Suffer Without Yielding, To Continue To Be, Or To Exhibit The State Or Power Of Lasting.

How Often Have We Ourselves Said Or Have Heard Others Exclaim In Times Of Crisis Or Trouble, 'i Just Don't Know Where To Turn'? If We Will Just Use It, There Is A Gift Available To All Of Us-the Gift Of Looking To God For Direction. Here Is An Avenue Of Strength, Comfort, And Guidance.

We Are Poor In Character When We Think Getting By Is A Substitute For Doing Our Best.

God Knows The Feelings In Every Human Heart. He Can Soften Sorrow And Lead When There Seems To Be No Light. Prayer Can Give Guidance And Confidence. It Reminds Us That No One Need Be Alone In This World. If All Else Fails, Remember, God And One Other Person Can Be A Family.
