Strength in Getting Up



When you fall and get up, you build and strengthen muscles that you couldn’t build and strengthen any other way than from that position: from being down and rising up.  If you stayed up all the time, those muscles would never see any growth.  THAT is why we can be thankful for trials that knock us down. 





Because there will come a day when we need every single muscle in our body to be strong and those painful trials--the getting up--will be the thing that creates those muscles.

Then we will hit the ground on purpose.  On our knees, saying, 
“Thank God! Thank you God for strengthening me in pain!  
I couldn’t thank you then, but I can now!”
