Thought for the Day 11/15/2011

Some day, in years to come, you will be wrestling        with the great temptation, or
trembling under the great sorrow of your life.
But the real struggle is here,
          now, in these quiet weeks.

Now it is being decided whether,
       in the day of your supreme sorrow or temptation,
you shall miserably fail or gloriously conquer.
          Character cannot be made except
by a steady, long continued process.
- Phillips Brooks

Remember how it was with you in the past.
In those days, after God's light had shone on you,
            you suffered many things,
yet were not defeated by the struggle.
Hebrews 10:32
