Friday's Faith
The Importance of Pain
Our pain drives us to our
knees.
Our pain longs for a
reprieve.
Our pain longs for a touch of
comfort.
Our pain never lets us
forget…
Our crushing pain drives us
closer to our God.
Our pain reminds us of
our love...
Our pain represents
our child...
Our pain draws us to the
embrace of our Lord.
Our pain culminates in tears that
cleanse, comfort, and heal.
Our pain makes us
more human.
Our pain makes us
more tender.
Our pain makes us
more compassionate.
Our pain reminds us of
what
R.e.a.l.l.y M.a.t.t.e.r.s.

"Beauty remains, even in misfortune. If you just look for it, you discover more and more happiness. . . .
