What makes us strong? If we are honest with ourselves, we all know it’s not the good times. Our challenges are our greatest teachers. When we accept this, it is easier to recognize that going through hard times makes you stronger.
I cannot pinpoint a day where I discovered my strength but I recognize a time, a period in my life, that made me strong even if I didn’t realize it at the time. I recognize that finding strength through pain, as much as we may not choose it, is a powerful life lesson. Don’t ever underestimate the force of strength that develops in you through life’s painful experiences. Sometimes God gives you trials that strengthen you beyond anything you believed possible.
