“It is a fatal mistake to assume that God’s goal for your life is material prosperity or popular success, as the world defines it.

Many adults are still trying to earn the approval of unpleasable parents. Others are driven by peer pressure, always worried by what others might think. Unfortunately, those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.”
