Real destiny takes everything—the last drop of blood, and strip out your veins to be sure—and gives it back doubled. Quadrupled. A thousand-fold! But you can't give halves. You have to give it all. I know. I swear. I've come back from the dead to speak the truth to you. Real destiny gives you a mountain of life, and puts you on top of it. ↗

Hidup itu adalah rangkaian perjuangan demi perjuangan. Maka janganlah ada yang menyerah berputus asa dan menganggap perjuangan hidup adalah satu yang sia-sia. Tetaplah tegar meski yang lain berguguran. Tetaplah tersenyum meskipun perjuangan ini terasa pahit dan berliku. Kerana DIA tidak akan mensia-siakan perjuangan kita ↗

But if the weather turns nasty you up with an anchor and let it down where there's less wind, and the fishing's better. And "Look," we say, "look, I'm anchored! To my principles! ↗

Psa 133:1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! Psa 133:2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; Psa 133:3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore. ↗
