"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or
where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt
Hello! I've come across your site when i was searching an image of "service to God." I think you're doing a great job. I've had my share of burden about truly reaching people and our community but i don't know how, until i learned about being missional.
I'm from the Philippines and the "missional" idea, concept or principles is hardly heard. I did my own research and i found to be what needed to be done by the church. We are currently doing acts of kindness in our community doing whatever we can to help out. We feel good about this because we felt this is what God wants. God bless
