There are circumstances in life that will knock us off of our feet.
Pain that hits you so hard it rocks your soul, and causes you to want to hide, play dead, or run away.
I’m talking about the kind of pain that breaks you, and all you want to do is STOP.
Stop working.
Stop talking.
Stop giving.
Stop producing.
Stop expecting.
Stop living.
But you simply can't do that. The reason?
If you stop, your offender wins.
If you stop, the pain wins.
If you stop working, you’ll stop learning.
If you stop talking, the wisdom you will gain from this terrible experience will go unheard.
If you stop producing, the gifts that are on the inside of you will never reach their full potential.
If you stop expecting, what will life look like for you in a year?
If you stop living, whose world will be crushed forever?
We cannot stop because we are broken. We cannot stop because we “feel” like we need a break.
We cannot stop.
Our pain has a purpose.
I know you’ve heard it before, and it sounds cliché but it is the truth.
Think about it for a moment
You can't stop living.
