But there are boulders in the road which do not belong there, boulders which cause hundreds of the pilgrims who are lame or blind or burdened, to fall by the wayside and perish.
It is your duty to aid in removing these obstacles and in making the road a safe and clear thoroughfare for all who journey.
Do not sit down by the roadside and say you have been hindered by these difficulties, that is to confess yourself weak.
Do not mount over them and rush to your goal and say coldly to the throngs behind you, "Oh, everybody can climb over that rock who really tries—didn't I?" That is to announce yourself selfish and unsympathetic.
No doubt the lame, the blind and the burdened could attain the goal despite the rocks if they were fired by a consciousness of the divine force within them; that consciousness can achieve all things under all circumstances.
But there will always be thousands of pilgrims toiling wearily toward the goal who have not come to this realization.
If there are unjust, unfair and unkind restrictions placed about them, see to it that you do all in your power to right what is wrong.
But never wait to attain your own success because of these restrictions or obstacles.
Believe absolutely in your own God-given power to overcome anything and everything.
Think of yourself as performing miracles with God's aid.
