On accepting adversity in our lives: Always it is initiated by an act of will on our part; we set ourselves to believe in the overruling goodness, providence, and sovereignty of God and refuse to turn aside no matter what may come, no matter how we may feel.

I choose to trust in God, and my feelings eventually follow.

That doesn't mean that anybody should stop fighting for equality just because people are begrudgingly a little more accepting.

Talib Kweli

Acceptance is the embracing of what happens. Acceptance is a way of getting in touch with the deeper, timeless dimension of aware presence, simply through accepting that this is what is happening or this is what I am feeling or thinking.

Accepting that the odds are against you is the same as accepting defeat before you begin.
