‘We are all sitting in the gutters but some of us are staring at the stars’ (Oscar Wilde I think, but you may need to check the exact wording).

Proverbs 13:4

The appetite of the lazy craves and gets nothing, while the appetite of the diligent is richly supplied.

Proverbs 17:22

A merry heart doeth good like a medicine; but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

Isaiah 40:31

but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint.

Matthew 19:26

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

James 1:6

But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

For me these are just a few. There are many ways to strengthen us for our daily walk and they are all focused on the Love of God. Thank You and have a great week.

Farragut was commander-in-chief of the U.S. Navy during the American Civil War. He was both the first vice admiral and full admiral of the Navy. He is remembered in popular culture for his famous order at the Battle of Mobile Bay, “Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!”

That quote ought to inspire your staff to get some work done this week!
