In adversity "We grow."
LINK
If we are fully convinced in the promises of the Lord, we set our sights on things above, any adversity becomes a full blessing.
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its complete work, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
James 1:2-4
