Stand Steady and True
---------------------------------------------------

"Discipleship does not guarantee freedom from the storms of life. Even as we are wending our way carefully and faithfully along the strait and narrow path, we encounter obstacle and challenge. There are days, perhaps even months and years, when life is just hard. We experience our fair share of adversity, heartache, loneliness, pain, and grief--sometimes it seems more than our fair share. "What to do when adversity strikes? There is only one thing to do. Stand steady and see it through. Stay steadfast, constant, and true. The real tragedy in the whirlwinds of life comes only when we allow them to blow us off our true course."

Wow!! How fitting for our family right now. I know that we could be in harder times, but we are enduring. We are standing steady, paying our tithing, and enduring. Thanks for sharing. I have been getting down and it usually finds it's way to James. He is working so hard and wanting this to work. This quote is very uplifting for us.
That is a great thought for the day. I'm glad I read it this morning. Thanks!
