Trials or Opportunities?
Adversity is God’s opportunity. (Original source unknown)
Religious leader Marvin J. Ashon wrote, “Adversity will surface in some form in every life. How we prepare for it, how we meet it, makes the difference. We can be broken by [it], or we can become stronger.” Seeing adversity as God giving us new opportunities to trust him will be an incentive to move forward with faith.
Though the Lord gave you adversity . . . he will still be with you to teach you. (Isaiah 30:20)
