Famous Craig D. Lounsbrough Quotes

“Confidence is a word born of a deeply primal wish. And it is rendered a wish simply because it is rarely a reality. We long for it. We hope for it. We engage in a myriad number of situations hoping against all hope that we can have confidence in whatever it is that we’ve chosen to engage in. Yet, the confidence that we are most often left with is the confidence that we cannot be confident. And the single exception that I have found is the God who was confident enough in me to be all things confident for me.”

“The stuff of imagination is not simply to let one’s mind run wild with things grand, magical and altogether wonderful. Rather, the stuff of imagination is recognizing the responsibility that one has to seize those things with all of one’s might and to wrestle them back into this world. And we must do that not only because this is where they belong, but more importantly, this is where they are needed.”

“A dream is our imagination waiting for us to be brave enough to pick up a pencil, zealous enough to sketch out a blueprint, determined enough to gather the tools, committed enough to lean into the task, and audacious enough to make imagination the reality that it was always meant to be. For in time, a dream left to be nothing but a dream will eventually leave our souls believing that dreams aren’t worth imagining. And I can only imagine a handful of things as devastating as that.”

“I will become discouraged and often I deeply lament of the fallenness that presses down in ever-darkening swells all around me. But I have learned that to be discouraged in the face of sin running rampant is simply my humanity finding itself vexed to exhaustion as I grapple with the wonder of ‘what could be’ as held against the depravity of ‘what is.’ Yet what I’ve learned is that discouragement is fortitude in the making, for God knows that to seize the vision of how good things can be we must first experience the wretchedness of how bad they can become. Only then will we understand the gravity of our mission and the power of goodness to achieve it.”
