What do you do when it seems like suffering won't stop?

What do you do when it feels like your pain doesn't have a point?

What does it do when it feels like your weaknesses continue to worsen?

You're going through a tough time.

Maybe you are in a valley today that you've experienced the worst failure of your life

and you are on the verge

of giving up maybe you're here today and your marriage is on the rocks maybe you're here today

and you're dealing with anxiety on a daily basis you know what it's like to be in a lonely dark place

you know what it's like to want to quit you know what it's like when the pressure's overwhelming, when people expect

your best, but you're at your worst. That is a moment of choice. That is a moment of decision.

What will your response be? Are you going to sit back? Are you going to step up? Adversity

creates the perfect moment for audacity.

The real challenge of growth, mentally, emotionally and spiritually,

comes when you get knocked down.

Life's going to punch you right in the face.

Life's going to fire you over and over again.

You're going to be told you're not good enough.

Your faith is going to be tested. Your family is going to look you in the eye and say, how do we get health insurance the next

month? I don't know, but I know we're going to make it. Life is hard, man. That's what it's about.

If you don't work as hard as you can, if you don't sacrifice everything, if you don't get rejected and keep coming back for more if you don't get your loyalty tested and your faith tested

You don't love that thing if you bail out so if you fought through all that that's love

Even in the darkest times even when the sun is blotted out in the world is falling apart. The darkness cannot extinguish your light, your will.
