Mga Kawikaan 27:12 Ang taong matalino ay nakakakita ng panganib, at nagkukubli siya, ngunit nagpapatuloy ang walang muwang at siya'y nagdurusa. Mga Kawikaan 21:20 Ang bahay ng matalino'y napupuno ng kayamanan, ngunit lahat ay winawaldas ng taong mangmang GET STRENGTH You can't change the past, but you can look toward the future. Believe that God is acting in your life. Psalm 73:26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

Resiliency is not a personality trait, it is a skill that can be learned, making it possible to endure hardships, to thrive after and learn from it. Resilience is not just to attain riches and power. It is to remain faithful and continue to follow God’s plan. PROVERBS 24:16 For the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity. Sapagka't ang matuwid ay nabubuwal na makapito, at bumabangon uli: Nguni't ang masama ay nabubuwal sa kasakunaan. Even the righteous can fall, they are not exempt from falling. But the wicked can easily be taken down when they encounter trials. No matter how many times God’s people fell, they don’t stay down long; they will pull themselves up onto his feet. When experiencing conflict, Christian should ask themselves, how long would you like that suffering to continue for yourself ? You have to start to trust God for you to get going.
Trust = bear fruit.
Trusting God rather than relying on our strength is the best way to stay resilient.
