CHRONIC FRUSTRATION

Have you heard the story of a majestic eagle that lived in the safety of the high cliffs,

and often flew to great lofty heights. He could dive at great speeds.

HE OFTEN FELT HE WAS INVINCIBLE, NOTHING COULD TAKE HIM DOWN.

A hunter studied the eagle day after day, and prepared himself for the hunt.

The man was very patient and waited for just the right moment.

One day the hunter stepped out of the snare, he had the perfect opportunity,

he drew back his bow and shot the beautiful, strong eagle and his arrow buried

in the eagles chest.

The eagle fell to the ground, he realized he was mortally shot.

To his dismay, when he raised his head, he saw the tip of the arrow’s shaft.

There glued to the straight shaft was the eagle’s own feathers...

HIS FEATHERS HAD GUIDED THE ARROW THAT WAS SNUFFING OUT HIS LIFE...

How sad he thought he was invincible and his OWN FEATHERS HELPED

BRING HIM DOWN...

CHRONIC FRUSTRATION WILL BRING DOWN THE INVINCIBLE---

OUR ENEMY HAS NO EFFECTIVE METHOD OR WEAPON OF DESTROYING

YOU --- UNLESS YOU GIVE HIM THE AMMUNITION...
