Meaning
This reads as advice for endurance under strain. It can be taken to mean that hardship does not ask for control so much as for surrender, steady prayer, and a disciplined way of meeting the day without being consumed by it. It lands when someone is trying to get through illness, grief, or uncertainty and needs language for staying upright.

About Billy Graham
American evangelist and Southern Baptist minister
Billy Graham was an American evangelist, ordained Southern Baptist minister, and civil rights advocate, active in the 20th century. Born William Franklin Graham Jr., he became widely known for broadcasts and world tours built around live sermons. Over a career that lasted more than six decades, Graham rose to prominence as an evangelical Christian figure in the United States and abroad. His public work made him a familiar voice in religious broadcasting and large-scale preaching, and his influence extended well beyond the pulpit.
