"I must govern the clock, not be governed by it." ~Golda Meir
"We have always said that in our war with the Arabs we had a secret weapon - no alternative." ~Golda Meir
Numbers always interest me. When I found that Golda was the fourth Prime Minister and Founder of the state of Israel, I thought about what that number meant. Four means (Rule and Reign). Her work in trying to bring peace ended when war broke out for the forth time between Israel and the Arab nation. She resigned in 1974 and then she died in 1978 just four years later. Golda Meir ruled and reigned while fighting leukemia for twelve years. This fact was little known until after her death. Perhaps that is one reason she earned the name, "The Iron Lady", long before Margaret Thatcher.
Golda Meir knew well the meaning of her quote, "You'll never find a better sparring partner than adversity."
Perhaps we all need more adversity and less looks, peace, and passivity. Perhaps the adversity we face really makes us what we are. Perhaps strength really comes from struggles.

James 1:2-4 "Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."
2 Tim. 2:12 (KJV) "If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:"
Today do all you can for those that can not do for themselves. Speak for those that have no voice. Be brave and live life with no regrets.
