The Treasure Within The Trouble

There is enormous positive power in adversity. Adversity is what molds our character. Just as weight training develops our muscles. 

Weight training speeds up our metabolism and makes us look and feel better. It makes us stronger and more resilient in the face of accidents and all sorts of trauma. Our physical muscles become stronger when confronted with resistance, and the same is true for the "muscles" in our minds, spirit, and character. 

Remember, the presence of tension, conflict, and difficulty indicates that growth is trying to take place. When you view this adversity as natural, normal, and, in fact, even necessary, it empowers you to take advantage of its potential for growth. 

Adversity, regardless of its orgin, can be turned to your advantage when you trust God to be bigger, stronger, and more tenacious than anything you ever face.
