This is the realm of tears. This life is meant to be the hardest because we are meant to prove ourselves. Every day people are not given food, water, safety, the right to say a single word, forced to marry an old man at the age of 7, repeatedly raped and tortured, kicked in the face to death, forced to rape their own fathers, mothers, daughters, sisters... forced to live on the streets, not given the right to an education, forced into prostitution, locked in cages, living in huts, forced to grow up with no parents, enslaved. This realm is not meant to be easy but we are still given SO much..even those who literally have nothing can be grateful. Take a second to be humbled and compare your life to some in other places and times around the world. We have life. Opposition. The ability to walk, talk, think... we are not bound by the chains of death. We have agency, of which is not free because we have a heavenly father that loves us with the purest and most true love. He loves us enough that he has given us tools and trials so to try and guide us back by his side with strength, self worth, and dignity in Eternal Glory .He loves us enough that he sent his ONLY begotten son for our eternal salvation. He has given us every single thing that we have. Even the very bodies we use daily, the food and water we partake of, the ground we walk on.. and thats only scraping the surface. I am thankful for every single blessing that my Lord has given me. Even those blessings in disguise.
