Attitude keeps me going or cripples my progress. It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hopes. When my attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me.
Charles R. Swindoll

Trusting God doesn't alter our circumstances. Perfect trust in Him changes us.
Charles R. Swindoll
