O Source of Strength,

No one goes through life unchallenged by adversity. The real test however, is rarely the problems that we face, but rather the test is how we face our problems.

The 20th century philosopher, and Holocaust survivor, Viktor Frankl observed that "everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms-to choose one`s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one`s own way."

The ultimate freedom in life is that we can define who we are by the way in which we confront the challenges that we encounter each and every day.

May it be Your will O God, that regardless of what challenges might befall us, we always choose to live a life of integrity, and in accordance with our highest values and beliefs. May this be God`s will.-AMEN.
