Stronger

Almost every situation has us at the “end of our rope.” Every time our back is against the wall, we get tired of running or we think we’re out of options, we throw our hands up and say we’ve reached our breaking point. We’ve reached out breaking point so many times, there should be nothing left of us, to put back together. Fortunately, our “breaking point” is actually our “break through point.” Just when we think we are out of steam and can’t emulate “The Little Engine That Could,” we get this push; this thrust that takes us over the wall of hurt, around the lake of disappointment and helps us climb the hill of struggles. We conquer, we defeat and we overcome the struggle. Proving that we are stronger, we are wiser and we are capable of more.

Next time you feel like your situation is getting the best of you, remember the words to Kelly Clarkson’s “Stronger”

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes you fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone
