The Detriment of Despair

(February 13, 1999)

Once a person gets despair out of the way, very few things can slow his progress.

Despair is the dividing line between those who can take impossibility in stride and those those who wilt at the first sign of opposition. Too much energy is spent in despair. Strength gives way to weakness and weakness robs us of the will to overcome.

Anything that wastes energy should be left behind. Energy cuts doubt to the bone. When a word of power is spoken, new strength is generated. Power words are not just pretty words, but strong words of courage that are heard in the heart where they stay to do a perfect work.

Have a great Valentine's Day.

Peace,
Tawanka
