Life chips and pounds
you to bring out your possibilities.
She will strip you of wealth, humble your pride,
Humiliate your ambition, let you down from the ladder of fame,
And discipline you in a thousand different ways,
And hopefully provide you with an opportunity to choose to develop a little character.
Everything gives way to that or resists and rejects the opportunity to succeed and benefit.
God in His omniscience knew every moment of your life before He gave you life for He is the author of life itself.
In His soverneignty and providence He knows your soul and provides you with opportunities to grow, develop and overcome. He Provides you with His Word so that you can align your thinking with His and learn the choices He desires for you.
Wealth is nothing, position is nothing, fame is nothing.
Who you become inside is everything.
What happens to you is not as important
as how you react to what happens and therefore who and what you become as a result.
"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by each experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
Eleanor Roosevelt
1884-1962, Former First Lady and Lecturer
