Life can get pretty rough at times.
When things are looking pretty rough in life, it can be really hard to see the light. Fear, doubt, depression, resentment all creep in and you might find yourself wondering which way is up? Frequently we are so scared to even feel these negative emotions that we try to avoid them altogether, only finding that they come back time upon time. What's the way out? Is there a way out?
Through.
Have the courage to go through.
Many of us will have to grip onto our faith to go through these terrifying things.
There is a particular sort of magic and grace in getting close to your emotions - even the ones that hurt - without being consumed by them. It's like attempting to put your hand by a hot pan to feel the heat but at the same time trying to not burn yourself. These negative and agonizing feelings, while they test our soul endlessly can become a source to our greatest healing. They can take us places where we need to bring our love and teach us about what needs some attention. Give yourself the opportunity to actually experience these thoughts and emotions deeply without trying to run from them and change them and see how much you can learn. It is a challenging experience to say the least, but it's an very worthwhile journey in itself.
It's going to hurt a bit when you go back into this painful place. But if you give yourself the chance to do some serious healing then you'll come out just fine on the other side of things. You'll really begin to live. You'll really begin to see the world in a pretty different way. Deciding to connect with everything and anything around you will open up more doors than you could possibly imagine.
Hard times will test your faith, but isn't that the point of having faith when it comes down to it? We all need to have something that we can go to no matter any challenge that comes our way. So run to your faith when times get dark...you will always have a light.
