Hard Times And The Necessity Of Faith

By Evan Sanders


Life isn't always easy.

When things are looking pretty rough in life, it can be really hard to see the light. Fear, doubt, depression, resentment all creep in and you might find yourself wondering which way is up? Frequently we are so scared to even feel these negative emotions that we try to avoid them altogether, only finding that they come back time upon time. What's the way out? Is there a way out?

Make sure you go through them and feel them.

We must go through these things.

Many of us will have to grip onto our faith to go through these terrifying things.

There's something amazing that happens when you decide to face your greatest fears without letting them own you. You learn whey are are made of and further learn that you can go through the worst and trust yourself to get out onto the other side of things. That building of trust in yourself can take you really far as life continues to up its game on you and challenge you with tougher situations every single day.

Can this experience be very painful at times? Absolutely. But when we start to link into the darker energies of life, we give ourselves a chance to compassionately cope with the things we may not have given much attention to in the past. These past events and unsightly emotions will come knocking at our door consistently, and we can continue to pretend as if they do not exist or we can kindly allow them in and start the conversation that has long been required.

Hard times will test your faith, but isn't that the point of having faith when it comes down to it? We all need to have something that we can go to no matter any challenge that comes our way. So run to your faith when times get dark...you will always have a light.
