Your Actions Speak Louder Than Words
A lot of people are afraid of taking that "first step" towards reaching their goals and dreams. They sit back waiting for the right opportunity to come to them, or they wait until everything in their lives are "perfect" before they start. The time is NEVER going to be perfect! And the only way to conquer fear is to take ACTION. My mom always told me, "Don't try, DO IT." I always knew she was a smart lady! :-)

Duty is always the will of God. To see it and not to do it, is a most disastrous thing for the man, as well as being an offense against God. --Outlook
