Pushing Through Adversity
Through the Power of Prayer
Gives You Staying Power
Pushing through adversity can more than often be one of the most overwhelming things in your life. Each time a person may feel that the walls around him are getting tighter and tighter and he is held a victim to his thoughts. Each step he takes is full of confusion, anxiety and a fear of being wrong or losing the little he has left. The fear keeps on getting stronger and stronger and there comes a point when a person actually starts believing that he might never be able to make it. This is the exact point where prayers come in. The only way to push past the deep sinking swamp of adversity is faith. Faith doesn’t mean that there will be a higher power or a miracle to save you, but that the miracle is you yourself.
Every time a person prays, they realize that they have been through so much and they are still standing here, which only means one thing, “They are strong!” In this way each prayer is a source of resilience and steadfastness. While keeping their eyes closed and holding their breath together, a person who is praying unleashes their biggest support through adversity i.e. their own strong will. This way the strength to stand tall and firm when the flood gates of adversity open up save one from drowning. A person who prays easily finds that they are not the victim to their circumstances but that they thought they were drowning in water which was only in their head.
