One of life’s greatest gifts is the fact that life is difficult.
You may not see it but we all have to believe in it.
Because in dealing with life’s difficulties, we build invaluable strength.
This strength enables us to successfully fulfill our deepest, most meaningful purposes. It is precisely because life is difficult that we are able to make it great.
It is because life is difficult that we are able to rise above the difficulties. We are able to make a difference and we are able to truly matter. When times are tough, you must be tougher.

Don’t pray for an easy life,
pray for the strength to endure a tough one that leads to greatness.
So start every morning ready to run farther than you did yesterday and fight harder than you ever have before.
It won’t be easy, but it will hopefully be worth it in the end.
