Struggles
Don’t let struggles break you—let them make you. (Anonymous)
What would life be without its difficulties and trials? We can’t imagine such a life, can we? We all have struggles from time to time, and they can be very discouraging. But as muscles are strengthened by exercise, our spirits can be made stronger by dealing with the difficulties and resolving to first overcome and then become even more valuable to our world.
We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance (Romans 5:3).
