Challenges Strengthen Us or Run Us Over

“The challenges in our lives are there to strengthen our convictions. They are not there to run us over” by Nick Vujicic. 

If you want to grow your muscles, you need to work out. Pressure helps you to build your muscles. The same can be said about challenges. They build your spiritual muscles. They are not meant to destroy you or dishearten you, or make you powerless. No, on the contrary, they can make you into a spiritual giant if you accept them and use to your advantage to make you stronger. If they have worked for the author of the quote (he is without limbs), they can work for our benefit too.
