Ambition

 


"The child without ambition is like a watch with a broken spring." R. W. Stockman

It is not wrong to have ambition. It is not wrong to want to be somebody. The tragedy is that this has to be said! For too long, I played the tapes in my head that discouraged ambition and creative pride. I confused humility with timidity and self-abuse. I waited for things to happen, rather than making them happen for myself. Today I know I am a creature of God, created to create. God is at work in my life. I am part of God's miracle for the world.

God,may I always have ambition for those things that are good and true.
