I recently asked a mentor what he did to keep himself believing that change would come…that his convictions were right…that truth would prevail. His answer was immediate and straight forward: “choice”.
He chuckled and continued on with, “I steel myself”.
There’s a passage in the Bible that says, ““ For the Lord GOD will help Me; Therefore I will not be disgraced; Therefore I have set My face like a flint, And I know that I will not be ashamed.”
External opposition is difficult, but sometimes the more intensely critical and despairing opposition comes from within.
Truth: it is what it is…no matter how you feel.
