Some of the world`s greatest people have faced the world`s greatest challenges, but have overcome them. Cripple a man, and you have Sir Walter Scott. Lock a man in prison, and you have John Bunyan. Raise a man in abject poverty, and you have Abraham Lincoln. Subject a man to bitter religious prejudice, and you have Benjamin Disraaeli. Strike a man down with paralysis, and you have Franklin Roosevelt. Have someone born black in a society filled with racial discrimination, and you have Booker T. Washington, Harriet Tubman, Marian Anderson and George Washington Carver. Make a man the first child to survive in an impoverished Italian family of 18, and you have Enrico Caruso. Have a man born to parents who survived a Nazi Concentration camp, paralyze him from the waist down when he`s four years old, and you have the incomparable violinist Itzhak Perlman. Call a man a slow learner and mentally challenged, write him off as beyond education, and you have Albert Einstein. Helen Keller was born blind and deaf, yet she graduated from college with highest honors and impacted the world. Margaret Thatcher, England`s first and only woman prime Minister, lived upstairs over her father`s grocery store. For a while her childhood home had no running water and no indoor plumbing. Golda Meir, Israel`s first and only woman prime minister was a divorced grandmother from Milwaukee. As we begin another work, the shared thought is this: What do these highlighted people teach us? It is simply that success doesn`t depend on our circumstances, but it largely rests on us overcoming such when they occur. And with God on our side we will overcome! Paul, one of the world`s great over comers, wrote, “ if God be for us, who can be against us?” we must develop the attitude of a winner, an over comer in the university of life. Problems are not here to stay, no matter what, always affirm to yourself while it lingers, “this too shall come to pass”.

Thank u.....for drawing my attention to that. I appreciate
