Outlasting Adversity

“If you faint in the day of adversity, Your strength is small.” [1]

“According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.

When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider suicide. ” [2]

Parents, prepare your children for adversity. Show them how to look to the Lord for strength and help. Speak of God’s redeeming grace. Show them to how to depend on the Lord for help in times of difficulty. Encourage them to be humble enough to let people help them when they need help. Rather than prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road.
