I believe you cannot go around many of the most acute experiences in life. You can attempt to avoid but you cannot avoid these passage ways that lead you to who you are becoming. You can get stuck if you try to go around or turn and try to run. These are the experiences that are destined to transform you. There is no way except the way the truth and the life. Jesus always invites us to walk with him through it. Right down the middle and into the heart of it. Then He leads us past it and all that remains is a peace and the new wisdom and a understanding of who Jesus is. I do not want to delay.
John 16:22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
