We all fall


This week I fell.
Literally. Swollen black and blue foot.
Propping it up in the air I thought "This hurts!"
We all have pain. We all hurt.We all fall.
I thank God for that.
In that moment I truly realized
Without the pain I would never see how wonderful it is to be pain free.
No more taking things for granted.
I will be grateful for the pain.
Christ suffered.
Why should we have it easy?


"Sometimes we will face things for which there is no earthly
explanation. In those moments we need to erect a sign that reads,
'Quiet: God at Work.' Meanwhile, hold on, child of God. Keep
believing. Don't quit. Don't give up. Let God do His work in you. The
greatest tragedy is to miss what God wants to teach us through our
troubles." - Why Did This Happen to Me? by Ray Pritchard (March Ensign:Trials,
Tribulations, and Trust in the Lord)

(me and my ankle support. No worries I should be good in no time)

In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have
overcome the world" (John 16:33)
