Oftentimes, we, especially women, hide our real potential behind the negative vices of life. We hide behind our fears, past hurts, past failures, and, mostly, behind the feeling of not being worthy or feeling we are enough. Every time someone told you that you weren't good enough, smart enough, or talented enough, you gradually started to become doubtful about who you are and what you can become. So, by default, your self-worth is lowered and you begin to hide behind a veil of people pleasing, overachieving, and careless living.

We must understand that life as well as becoming who we are meant to be is all about overcoming adversity. There is something about adversity that validates the anointing and the true essence of who we are. Whether it comes through trials, tribulations, anguish, or heartache, adversity is designed to bring us to a higher level of insight and understanding. What we overcome ultimately makes us stronger and helps us build a powerful testimony and gives us extreme power to stand. Power to stand and see the salvation of God.
