The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way.
We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment. Disappointment is inevitable. But to become discouraged, there's a choice I make.
God would never discourage me. He would always point me to himself to trust him. Therefore, my discouragement is from Satan. As you go
through the emotions that we have, hostility is not from God, bitterness, unforgiveness, all of these are attacks from Satan.
It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of
pain: of strength and freedom.
The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony.
When people get married because they think it's a long-time love affair, they'll be divorced
very soon, because all love affairs end in disappointment.
But marriage is a recognition of a spiritual identity.
There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.
Regret is not a proactive feeling. It is situated in disappointment, sorrow, even remorse. It
merely wishes things were different without an act to cause a difference. However, repentance is different. Repentance is an admission of, hatred of, and turning away from sin before God.
The beauty is that through disappointment you can gain clarity, and with clarity comes conviction and true originality.
Like everyone else in this world, I have had
struggles. There's disappointment and obstacles in everybody's life. I feel like I was writing 'Second Chance' not just for myself, but also for the people who have structure.
The principles of living greatly include the capacity to face trouble with courage, disappointment with cheerfulness, and trial with humility.
