Just continue to "walk in the light" you have been given, and leave the future in God's hands. If He is calling you to do a job, He will make it possible for you to care for your family and overcome any other barriers to that responsibility.

James C. Dobson
About This Quote

This quote from Mother Teresa is a great example of how to overcome obstacles and achieve success. Mother Teresa was able to overcome poverty, illness, and discrimination as well as the many other barriers that would have stopped many people. She left her family – a blessing – to help the poor – a mission – and to spread the gospel – a mission within a mission. She was also a woman of great faith.
