When you run into insurmountable issues, do not be fatalistic, it's not the end; it may just be the beginning.

. God always has a plan for us beyond what we can expect. We ought to check our expectations because they may be unreasonable.

. Whatever we gain or accomplish it will be by God's strength, not ours; recognize.

. Do not feel hopeless, discouraged, or helpless when facing your mountains, trust and listen to God.
