Many of us have heard this phrase: "When the going gets tough, the tough get going."
This principle proves quite useful in times of extreme stress. Rather than run from the difficult situation, we are better running toward the problem and taking it by the horns.
One such case comes from my college years. I had reached a point of such mental exhaustion that it had started manifesting through very real physical illnesses over several months. Rather than quitting (an idea I sadly entertained), I kept fighting through it. I spent many days voiceless and many sleepless nights as I, with the help of God and many friends, fought through my inner turmoil.
Now, I find myself thankful for the difficulty I struggled through and the deeper faith God has blessed me with.
Those of you who are in the midst of a difficult time, I offer this advice. Keep pushing through it and fighting. You will be stronger for it.
