Courage is contagious - Billy Graham

This quote was added by rich_440791
Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost. Tears shed for self are tears of weakness, but tears shed for others are a sign of strength.

"He was a great man who uplifted many" -- that's so EASY to say, it has been heard oft. Yet what is the sense of connection to the G-dly in this empty arrogance? For while, yes, courage of one in a community can become the encouragement to many -- very true, and one must be courageous when strength allows it ! -- yet hath Mr. Graham ever suffered loss of weatlth? So haughty to say that it is nothing! Loss of wealth can kill a man, a family, a town, a countryside. Nor are tears shed for self weakness. King David's pillow was soaked with tears, he suffered many afflictions and trials, they were constant. And in the tiredness come to one at the end of a full day, certainly not all od his tears were for others. Many were for himself. A tear, a single tear, can save a world, even if it is for oneself.
