 It's a curious thing to me when I see people who always want comfort and ease. They call it "blessing." They talk about living a prosperous life and they constantly rebuke every from of adversity or uncomfortable circumstance that might make them less than perfectly happy in the present moment.
What they are missing is the bigger blessing- the more important blessing. The lessons, the strength, the growth, The sanctification process. All of this happens through trial, pain, heartache. If you are in the middle of a storm, seek not to escape it. Seek to learn from it. Consider it joy that you have been given a precious opportunity to grow.

I agree with you when you say that you find it odd when people want a comfortable and easy life. I mean, how do people consider themselves as "living"? Not dying is not similar to living. I think that people who are okay with just being able to sleep and eat all day are wasting a lot of their lives, I believe that while you are still alive you must do all the greatest things you can think of. Do more with your life while you're still alive

That's actually a very good point. A client wishing to work through issues related to mortality can ask their therapist to focus on that topic. Therapists cannot decide for the client what should be discussed, however, so it's up to the individual or family to specify. Thank you for reading and commenting! Leave a Reply. |
