“Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when
he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised
to those who love him.”
James 1:12
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest
fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness,
that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is
nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure
around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of
us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own
fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
