Adversity to advancement...

"Adversity is not simply a tool. It is God's most effective tool for the advancement of our spiritual lives. The circumstances and events that we see as setbacks are often times the very things that launch us into periods of intense spiritual growth. Once we begin to understand this, and accept it as a spiritual fact of life, adversity becomes easier to bear." (Charles Stanley)
 
Dear God~Sometimes ...we simply do not understand so much of life. Yet when we trust You above all else, You hold us, heal us, teach us and give us strength to face whatever this journey holds. Ironically, this is when we often learn far more about You than whatever else we were trying to understand. Drawing closer to You makes the journey more meaningful...and peaceful..than ever before. Thank You...for only You can turn our moments of fear into lessons of faith. ♥~thl
