Accomplishments change me: after 5 years, for the first time I’m going to class with people who don’t have straight teeth. I’m learning to think more of them and less of teeth.
Accomplishments prepare me to serve: they led me to visit prisoners and addicts and gain compassion for them.
I expect to be threatened and have heartache. I don’t expect that the Lord will soften adversity’s punches because of my accomplishments. But He has: more people confide in me, and becoming attached nurtures me despite troubles.
