Start with your foundation.....

Everybody goes through times of testing and not every storm in your life shows up in the forecast. We all face trials and difficulty. The key to staying strong is in your foundation. Build a strong foundation of faith, courage, confidence and commitment in your life now. It is much more difficult to "get strong" after trouble comes. The greatest time to keep your commitments is when you are in the midst of trouble. It shows your true character. Choose not to use your troubles as an excuse for not keeping commitments in your life. It is the perfect time to let your strength and character shine through as an example for others.
