Adversity...

Adversity...everyone goes through it...not everyone grows from it. Don't allow allow adversity to hold you back. To grow from it, trust God to restore the wrongs done, then embrace humility asking God to purge the endless pit of pride, the flesh, and to eradicate your false confidence tethered to worldly things. If you reject adversity...you reject growth. Many forfeit growth-preferring to focus on unfair treatment or refusing to accept the grace Jesus offers; both choices end in bitterness. God desires to flood us with revelation of His love. God will lead us along paths we're not familiar with and turn darkness into light before our very eyes-making the rough places into smooth plains. He promises this when we follow Him and He will not forsake us!  (Eph 1:18, Isa 42:16). 12/10/12-LMM
