Created for Greater Things # 2 and # 3.

"What is the best that lies within us?  Of how much are we capable?  None of us yet know.  An old Arabic legend tells of a rider finding a spindly sparrow lying on its back in the middle of the road.  He dismounted and asked the sparrow why his feet were in the air.


Replied the sparrow, 'I heard the heavens were going to fall today.' 
'And I suppose you think your puny bird legs can hold up the whole universe?' laughed the horseman.
'Perhaps not,' said the sparrow with conviction, 'but one does whatever one can.'"

"In the gospel of Jesus Christ you have help from both sides of the veil, and you must never forget that.  When disappointment and discouragement strike - and they will - you remember and never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see riding at reckless speed to come to our protection.  They will always be there, these armies of heaven, in defense of Abraham's seed."
