Adversity

It's often said adversity reveals character, or lack of it! I've found when adversity comes knocking at the door it offers us an opportunity to make a decision. We are then defined by the choice we make. When times get tough will we take the high road, or allow pressure to make a less than desirable choice? In other words, Do we allow adversity to control us, or do we maintain control of ourselves? The choice is simple, it's a matter of self discipline. Personally I refuse to grant control over any situation to anything or anyone else. Once you've made the choice, your no longer in control. You've passed those decisions off to others, thereby forfeiting freedom.

Remember our heritage, we fight for freedom. Face adversity with an attitude that says,"This will not beat us." Adversity is just another bump in the road, run it over!

God Bless
