It’s crazy how people see things that we ourselves cannot see or admit or acknowledge, for that matter. As much as we have a grasp on something or a situation, there are still things about it that we never realize. And I am VERY thankful for that. It’s good to see different points of views, to understand from all perspectives. I know I’m being quite vague, but this can be applied to anything and anyone. We tend to analyze something so much that we fail to see a lot of things about it. That’s why seeking wise counsel is so important! So people can help you pray and discern what to do, and how to go about it.
I will leave you with an excerpt from the Imitation of Mary:
“If you love God, generosity should be the main proof of your love. A heart that is mean and niggardly does not know what it means to love. If you are unwilling to do anything difficult for God, if you lose heart at the sight of difficulties to be surmounted, can you be said to love? True love proves itself in pain and conflict. Inability to suffer is incompatible with the outlook and practice of an authentic follower of Jesus.”
