"Faith is not faith, until it is the only thing you're holding onto." - Unknown
If you conducted a poll regarding success, over fifty percent of respondents will tell you great, lofty wants. Success appeals to everyone, no matter colour, race or geography: it's a universal language. Most people 'want' to succeed, others 'admire' success and yet others 'desire' it. The degree of desire for anything is, what determines whether one will, or will not get it.
The Wright brothers, brothers battled depression and illness before starting the bicycle shop, that led them to experimenting with flying machines. After numerous failed attempts at creating flying machines, years of continuous work, and tons of faulty prototypes, and discouragement from their father, they finally created a machine that could get airborne and stay there. Churchill struggled in school and failed the sixth grade. After school he faced many years of political
failures: he was defeated in every election for public office until he finally became the Prime Minister at the ripe old age of 62.
Grace is available for success but grace will only do what it should do: grace will strengthen, encourage and propel you, even when things are pulling you back. Don't just want or admire success, crave and desire it. It's yours for the taking. Take a cue from Churchill, Jordan etc. Enemies and friends alike, are waiting to laugh when you fail. Disappoint them, succeed instead. The best form of revenge is massive success. Go succeed!
