The faithful man perceives nothing less than opportunity in difficulties. Flowing through his spine, faith and courage work together: Such a man does not fear losing his life, thus he will risk losing it at times in order to empower it.

It is much like leaping from a window in order to avoid a fire yet in that most crucial moment knowing that God will appear to catch you.
