THRIVING THROUGH ADVERSITY!
Adversity is one of the most difficult things of life to manage. Nurturing the tenacity to keep and maintain right character/composure when people persistently and consistently come at you in all kinds of ways and manners to assassinate your character, demean and reproach your person will, in my opinion, be the major life skill to learn and master.
It is always tempting to mete out in equal measure the hostility and unkind actions towards you, especially when no act of yours warrants it; against all judgements.
However keeping a good composure and choosing grace amidst the adversity goes a long way to build ones character, define and firm up ones strengths and provide insight into the weaknesses that need attention and work.
Embracing adversity with grace has been my biggest lifelong lesson on my journey to BECOMING. I have come to appreciate that it is much in my favour than I may think it to be; despite the tremendous pain, hurt and potential damages that sometimes take forever to repair.
When God admonished us through Apostle Paul to pursue peace with all men; I believe choosing grace towards our adversaries despite their attacks at our character, could translate as one of the many ways.
Being kind in the face of hostility has and will NEVER be the easy way but I believe it’s worth it, at the culmination of all things.
May we find Grace to bear and THRIVE!
