"Faith, strength and character are developed in moments of pain and adversity. Typically we drop to our knees and beg God for mercy during these times. Then something magical happens. A door closes....another opens and we say, "wow what a blessing in disguise!" The deeper insight is that spirit was walking with you then whole time. The pain (resistance) are nudges by spirit to change directions and the fire that forges your faith.
A dear friend told me this morning to "enjoy the last moments of scarcity for it is a sensation that will never return." Thank you Yosef for the reminder.
The process is to be enjoyed and believe it or not, you may hold a fondness and miss the challenge of being in the struggle. But IT might never return. Make peace with it, appreciate what it has brought you then release it.
Sit back and relax into your new realities. Trust the process. These are your last hours with a faithful old friend. Enjoy every moment with it. Put away your secret decoder rings and just hear my heart.
