In my seminary graduating class there were several of my friends who faced distinct challenges to say the least.

One suffered from epileptic seizures. He made light of this fact as he prepared to go out to his first pastorate, “Well, if I have a fit in the pulpit, it won’t last forever and besides my congregation will know it might happen, so what’s to worry about.”

Another friend of mine, in our first Seminary year, stuttered so badly one could barely understand what he was saying when he preached. Plus his sermon lasted twice as long with half the content.

By the time he headed toward his first church his improvement was nothing short of miraculous.
I still remember seeing him out on the athletic field pacing back and forth while he tried to tame his recalcitrant tongue.

Stumbling blocks turned into stepping stone.

Anyone can fall and all of us do and more than once.

The difference is that some people get back up and keep on going and others just lie there.

It all comes down to whether or not you can be satisfied with being Never-was and Never-tried-to-be.

Ben Franklin said it, “When you get to the end of your rope. Tie a knot in it and hang on.”
