Thought for the day by Charles Handy on finding God inside one's self and using God to help overcome obstacles in life. Handy uses the story of Eric Fletcher to describe how he felt in his own darkest moments in life, when he perceived life as being out of his control. He proceeds to use Kierkegaard's story of the man and the mountain to illustrate how God does not move mountains in one's life, but enables one to climb mountains with His help. Handy thus instructs individuals to look for God inside themselves, and discover new parts of themselves, in order to triumph over difficulties.
Handy, Charles B Fletcher, Eric, 1951- Thatcher, Margaret Kierkegaard, Søren, 1813-1855 Wall Street (New York, N.Y.)
