“To duplicate, with such backing, what we have accomplished is only a matter of willingness, patience and labor.” (Page 163)
I’m not powerless over people, places, and things. I can
help Marjory, clean the kitchen, and make buttered-toast.
I have considerable, although not absolute, power over
people, places, and things.
I have a far larger part in the conditions I find myself in
than I realise.
Someone was blaming other people or factors for their
circumstances.
The response came, “You’re thirty-one. I’m pretty sure
things become your fault, soon.”
My life is what I’ve created, because it’s what I want,
whatever my protestations.
I have to change what I want, deliberately, then work
towards that objective.
The agency I have is considerable; therefore, what I’m asked
to do by God is considerable.
The crosswinds are fierce, but one must continue.
God then doubles the stake.
