Will

People do not lack strength; they lack will. (Victor Hugo, 19th century French author)

How do you handle tough times? Difficulties provide a test for us. Often, we feel that we just don’t have the strength to persevere and overcome. In giving up, however, we miss a chance to grow. Author Bob Marley wrote, “You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice.” Discover your strength by facing the difficulty and working hard to overcome it.

Guide my steps by your word, so I will not be overcome by evil (Ps 119:133).
Jesus: “. . . take heart, because I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33).
