Heaven help me if I had been sorry for myself, for I knew I must "come boldly unto the throne of grace," and face and destroy the difficulty, listening to the voice of God and His Christ. I was divinely protected as I walked through a fiery furnace of fear and discouragement, and triumphed over the tyranny of crippled thought.
