Some times, our character is shaped by the adversity. What say you??

Oh, Yes, I agree. I think sometimes God gives us the tools or words of incouragement in places we sometimes don't expect. Instead of looking at adversity as just something bad, it gives us the ability to look at adversity as an opportunity to grow.

I'm also reminded of what I heard about the Chinese word for Crisis...supposedly it's the same word for opportunity.

Sometimes, though, words just seem weak, when your tired. I'm going to try to get some rest.

Sleep, sleep, that healing gift
to rest, to heal, and begin anew
sweet the peace of quiet sleep
