Thriving depends upon contending with vigorous aspects of struggles of pain and challenge.

​Romans 5:3-5

And not only this, but [with joy] let us exult in our sufferings and rejoice in our hardships, knowing that hardship (distress, pressure, trouble) produces patient endurance; and endurance, proven character (spiritual maturity); and proven character, hope and confident assurance [of eternal salvation]. ⁵ Such hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

​Responses to challenge:

​

1. Succumb

2. ​Survival

3. Resilience

4. Thriving

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Surviving simply means to continue to live or exist. When uncertain and unexpected events happen, we respond in a way that enables us to keep on existing. Our quality of life, however, has been diminished because we are unable to adapt to the unexpected events.

​Resilience refers to our ability to cope with uncertainty by bouncing back. In psychology, resilience is defined as an individual’s ability to adapt to life challenges.

​Thriving is a condition beyond resilience and surviving, when reinvention occurs after an uncertain or unexpected event.

​

In essence, thriving occurs when we use uncertainty to innovate and transform.

​

So more than bouncing back, we are able to bounce forward and breakthrough to something new.

​James 1:2-4

Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing.
