Power of Adversity

The power that develops in adversity is the most unusual and beautiful of all
Most of us might look at the word adversity and shriek. Difficulties and are not our cup of tea; we would much prefer never having to face any at all.
When struck with tragedies, we feel alone, lost and without hope It is said “Adversity, similar to lava appears to destroy everything in it way, but out of the ashes and smoke, new, better and stronger things emerge that may have not been born in any other way” Zoe V.
Life with no challenges would be dull, for the reason that Adversity in its self has the effect of driving us, to producing prosperous circumstances that would have lain dormant. Let’s look at the positive side of hardships; as well as learn from them
I had the privilege of discovering that, what does not kill us makes us stronger, as the Bible says “we should rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character and character, hope” -Romans 5:3-5.
 The luxuries that are so enjoyed today; started with individuals, whom adversity never spared. Through all the mishaps of adversity, I consider it to be one of the most profound things in life that should be appreciated, and counted as a blessing;
Adversity begins the discovery of oneself.
Adversity builds character.
Adversity strengthens and encourages us to keep on moving, no matter how bad our circumstances may seem.
Adversity teach us to love, care and to give of oneself.
Adversity brings us appreciation for the people around us, and the little things we possess.
Adversity brings us closer to God, for when we have failed within ourselves; we may always look to Him, our creator.
 Adversity brings perseverance and patience.
Adversity helps us to make plans for the future, to have a better tomorrow.
Adversity lets us know, that we are alive, and tells us that it not too late to make a fresh start.
Adversity pushes us to the limit, to be the best that we can be.
Adversity gives us a song to sing and dance about our victories, pain, faith and hope.
Adversity brings us wisdom.
