The hurt in your history will give you focus for your future.

“Lean into the knife.” A friend told that to me during a difficult time. In other words, learn from the hurt in your history. Don’t just lament it. Because you don’t want to repeat it. Learn from it. And then let it give you focus for your future.

When we shift our thinking from…

“Why is God doing this to me?”

To…

“Why is God doing this FOR me?” — the path forward will (probably slowly) reveal itself.
