Adversity

A friend once share with me her struggles with growing up with-out a father and the day she felt God speak clearly to her. She was listening to a speaker - David Ring . He is a fantastic speaker and he has cerebral palsy. He has an amazing strength of heart. As he spoke about all the heart wrenching details of his life and spoke of his dad passing at age 11 and then his Momma dying shortly after, he said one sentence that really spoke to her. He said, "I didn't ask God WHY me? but WHAT Can I become BECAUSE this happened to me."
From Great pain..."Great character," "Great strength," "Great purpose,"... can evolve. Who will YOU become because of your adversity?
