Dear Saints,
Many people are miserable because they have devoted so much thought
energy to  exposing reasons how an endeavor could fail. Many times
Christians spend more time hanging out in the barracks debating over
minute issues than they spend actually living the Christian life.
It's time for us to stop spending entire days, weeks, and months hanging
out at Mars Hill, discussing all the latest twists of every doctrine.
It's time for us to get out there and do Christianity. 
See the quote: 
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the
strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them
better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose
face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who
errs and comes up short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms,
the great devotions, and who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at
the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at
the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his
place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory or
defeat."
by Theodore Roosevelt

Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace, be
still!" And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. Mark 4:39
