Something within me began to consider that maybe my fear and pain - TopicsExpress



          

Something within me began to consider that maybe my fear and pain were the best gifts I could have been given. Something told me if I would stop running from them, I just might be transformed. But into what I did not know. I’d seen our orphans suffer without complaint as they endured fever, cuts, hunger, death of family members, and many other things. I wondered if that was why Jesus said we must become like children if we are to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. They accept whatever is offered them and learn from it. It struck me that only those who drank deeply from the cup of suffering could talk about the really hard things in life as the normal rhythm of it. Those of us who merely sipped from it seemed to wallow in self-pity. #PassportThroughDarkness
