       The Apostle Paul said on one occasion: “I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him [Christ] who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:11-13, ESV). Just like the Apostle Paul, we too will face times of varying circumstances. But, just like Paul did through Christ, we can face whatever comes to us with the same determination, endurance, and a good attitude. We can face all things in life by counting on Jesus to be our strength and to give us the strength we need. The two examples both from the lives of Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt go to show us that we cannot let our difficult situations in life hold us back. We must press forward. If we are afraid, we need to learn not to be afraid, to remember God is with us.
