Sometimes, Living a Fulfilled life means you Allow yourself to Experience Pain

It’s hard to fully appreciate real joy if you didn’t go through moments of sadness. Sometimes, you need to know what it means to be in pain before you learn to value all your blessings. So if you are going through a terrible moment right now, then take it as an opportunity for you to become a better person. Don’t hide your own emotions. Acknowledge your pain and accept the truth that it’s part of the process. Life will always challenge you to go through the hard paths. And those difficult seasons are not meant to break and hurt you. But they will serve as a great reminder for you to appreciate the good things that happened in your life.

Most of the time, you will only feel so fulfilled inside the moment you overcome the difficult roads. So keep walking. You don’t have to always feel excited and motivated. Continue to do what’s right even if you are dying on the inside. It’s not going to be easy, but it’s the best thing that you can do to fully release yourself from the trap of your past. There will be moments when the painful events you experienced will hunt you like a terrible nightmare but keep your faith. What’s important is that you choose to live despite of the pain.

Fulfilment is birthed during the wilderness because it’s where you will discover the things that truly matters in your life. It’s where you will learn to value the simple blessings that you used to ignore. It’s the kind of season that nobody wanted to experience, but it’s necessary for the growth of our faith. Just slowly walk even when you don’t exactly know what’s happening. Believe in the promises that God planted in your heart. If you wanted to live a life without regrets, then humbly go through the process. Allow the pain and tears to shape you into a person that God created you to be.

A life with meaning is always a combination of both happiness and pain. Sometimes you will only find the true worth of each moment when you experience what it feels like to lose them. When God takes you to the unexpected twists and turns, then He is giving you the chance to discover what it truly means to be alive. It’s going to be a roller coaster ride. Sometimes, you will be filled with joy and there are also moments when you need to shed so many tears. But keep going because that’s what makes the journey more exciting. You won’t appreciate every moment but sooner or later you will learn the lessons behind all your experiences. May you choose to live the life that God created for you. May you patiently walk along the unexpected paths that He perfectly designed.
