COT: Reviewed Colossians 1:3-8 synopsis of Grateful Prayers for a Godly Church. A grateful church should always demonstrate genuine faith, hope & love. One quote that stuck with us is that we should be grateful when the gospel is bearing fruit all over the world. “If there’s no fruit, there’s a problem with the root.”

COT: Mental Toughness

1. Mental toughness is when you can find fuel in an empty tank.” – Unknown
2. “The true measure of a man is not how he behaves when things are going well, but how he responds when faced with adversity.” – Unknown
3. “It’s not the load that breaks you, it’s the way you carry it.” – Lou Holtz

These quotes emphasize the importance of resilience, persistence, and the ability to remain strong under pressure. Mental toughness is often about how you respond to challenges, not avoiding them.
