Adversity is inevitable, we run, it chases!.
Romans 8 v!. 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us!.

Well as a christian, we face the reality of life's adversity and this is how it brings to light how we ought to!.

From this verse!.!. we ask how can we possibly be 'More than conquerors' !?

If can however run from adversity!.!.!.there is nothing for us to conquer!.!.!. But we are conquerors by having to face up to adversity and oversome it by the hope we have in Christ (God)!. We therefore become not so much as a subject to adversity but we are able to make a subject of it by which we persevere and administer our efforts with God's help and the hope we have in Him by His love!.
Each adversity is an opportunity to conquer!
Every circumstance is one by which we find victory to be catapulted further even as the going gets tough!.!.!. we get tougher!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I do not run from adversity!. I will admit, I run from slingshots!. Especially if they are in the act of propelling someone!. Of course, if I were to find myself in an inevitable collision with a slingshot, I would consider that an adverse event which would no doubt, propel me towards the slingshot!

I suppose that would be ambivalently motivating for me! :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com
