Dark Obstacle Monster

The same obstacle monster  tries to bully me, sometimes. 
  I needed “reinforcements” too, just like everyone.

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. ~Henry Ford 

Press on. Obstacles are seldom the same size tomorrow as they are today. ~Robert H. Schuller 

Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them. ~Orison Swett Marden 

Life's up and downs provide windows of opportunity to determine your values and goals - Think of using all obstacles as stepping stones to build the life you want. ~Marsha Sinetar 

Obstacles are like wild animals. They are cowards but they will bluff you if they can. If they see you are afraid of them . . . they are liable to spring upon you; but when you look them squarely in the eye, they will slink out of sight. ~Orison Swett Marden 

Victories in life come through our ability to work around and over the obstacles that cross our path. We grow stronger as we climb our own mountains. ~Marvin J. Ashton

Be Still and Know that I Am God. ~Psalm 46:10

Still A Work in Progress

 "I myself am entirely made of flaws stitched together with good intentions", 
a quote by Augusten Burroughs. 
Yes, we're made up of  flaws and  God isn't  done with us yet. It could be a long, difficult  process. But let's not give up. We will reap the harvest if we refuse to quit.

Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit. ~Napoleon Hill

Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant. ~Robert Louis Stevenson

In God I trust, I will not be afraid. ~Psalm 56:11
