Indomitable Will


I believe God wants you to know... that

Strength does not come from physical capacity.
It comes from an indomitable will.

Mahatma Gandhi said that, and he was right. Boy, was he right!
My father put this to me in another way. Often during my
childhood he would say, "Never take 'no' for an answer."
And he made it clear to me that by this he meant, not just from
people, but from life.
Life is bendable to our will more than we know.

Every single time? Every single instant?
No. (Well, actually, yes...but that will probably not be our
experience, unless we have reached Mastery.) But more than we
know. In fact, that's the deal. If we don't know that life bends to
our will, it will not. So the trick is to know that life is on our side
-- and but awaits our command. Look what Gandhi did.


Neale Donald Walsch
