Sorrow is preparing you

Hello everyone,
Have you ever felt the "violent shake" of sorrow? Has sorrow ever pulled at the rotting roots of your heart? In the midst of your pain, did you realize that sorrow was making room for the joy that was to come. Sometimes we try to out-wit sorrow, we may run to someone, somewhere or something instead of allowing sorrow to do its' job. When we do this, we keep those rotten roots and we have to hustle to keep one step ahead of sorrow. The truth is, sorrow does have its' place, does have its' time and is preparing us for the coming joy. The next time you are experiencing the power of sorrow, please remember that it is okay to hurt and sometimes that hurt is nothing more than the feeling of the joy that is coming! Keep your head up and I will do the same....
