"If we can embrace the pain, then we will become filled with joy."
This short message reminded me, of course, of childbirth. Society's thought is to flee from the pain, to grab onto bedsides, to tense up, to medicate, anything to not feel the pain. However, I have witnessed, read, and chatted with clients about beautiful births. By embracing the pain; relaxing, humming through powerful feelings, and letting their bodies take over; by the time their tinies grace the world, they are filled with joy. Mom is free to love on, cuddle, and appreciate a perfect miracle.
It is just like life. If we can embrace pain; challenges, bumps in the road; and let the Lord take over, we, like a new mother, will be free to love everyone we meet, and bond with our Heavenly creator!
When you can embrace pain, you become empowered to do anything! You are not afraid because you are too filled with joy.
