Challenging Times & The Necessity Of Faith

By Evan Sanders


When things are looking pretty negative in life, it can be actually tricky to see the light. Fear, doubt, depression, uneasiness all creep in and the result doesn't look to good. Often, we are so frightened to even feel these emotions that we try avoiding them altogether, only finding that they come back time and time again. What can be the way out? Is there a way out?

Through.

We must go through these things.

For many of us, we must grip onto our endless faith.

There really is a particular sort of magic and grace in being capable of getting close to your feelings - even the ones that hurt - without being consumed by them. It is like making an attempt to put your hand close to a hot pan to feel the heat but at the very same time attempting to not burn yourself. These negative and unpleasant feeligns and emotions, while they test our soul deeply, can turn out to be a source to our greatest healing however. They can take us places where we really have to bring our love and teach us about what requires some attention. Give yourself the real opportunity to actually experience these thoughts and emotions deeply while not trying to run from them and change them and see just how much you can learn. It is certainly a challenging experiene to say the least, but it's an extremely worthwhile experience in itself.

Can this experience be really painful when you try it? Totally. But when we start to connect into the darker energies of life, we give ourselves an opportunity to compassionately cope with the things we may not have given much attention to during the past. These past events and ugly feelings will come knocking at our door consistently, and we will be able to continue to pretend as if they don't exist, or we will kindly guide them in and start the conversation that has always been needed.

These times will test your faith...but isn't that the true point of having true faith in the first place? We need to have something that we know we will be able to go to regardless of any challenge that comes our way. So run to your honest faith when times get dark...you will always have a light.
