Searching through the pain, trusting through the process. (Isaiah 26:16-17)

It's not always easy, often times I wonder if it's not a moment of the pain becoming like a friend. Not as something we are okay with, as something that has become a blessing. Paul wasn't healed of his thorn but HIS grace was seen in Paul's life because of it. Sometimes we go through it for the same reason Job did, (we may never truly know, Job didn't.) Sometimes we go through it because we did it. The truth of it: Does the storm's blustering have more focus than our DADDY'S breeze? Cause the pain is there, and labor may be 40 hours, it may be 40 years, who's eyes are we looking into as we go through it?
