Today is a windy day, so I took my baby tomato plants outside.  One might say I'm a cruel person to expose my babies to such conditions.  The truth is, however, that I've noticed when you expose young tomato plants to the wind, the stems become stronger.  Resistance builds strength.  We are the same way.  When we encounter resistance, we become stronger.  That's God's way.  To build muscles, we must encounter resistance.  So, the next time you encounter resistance, thank God that He is just making you stronger, better, resilient, and powerful.  God made you to overcome!!  Blessings!!!
