I can be absolutely assured that any endeavor of which God is not a part is most certainly a step backward. And any step backward is at least two steps behind where I’d be if I’d have gone forward in the first place.

About This Quote

The best thing we can do is to go forward and accept that we may not succeed. Obviously we don’t know the end of the story and we may not succeed in life at all, but we can at least try. When you think about it, it’s like walking through a dark forest. The path is there for you to follow, but you can’t see where it will lead you.

So, you walk along the path and make your way forward. You never know what might happen along the way, but one thing is certain: if you don’t go forward, then everything will always be behind you.
