It occurred to me that the most fulfilling work that I am now involved in happens to be directly related to hardships, failures or mistakes from my past. Those times either prepared me for, or gave me a heart for those that I am now able to serve. Try to keep in mind that present victories are almost always preceded by trials and testing--God does some of His best and most significant work through pain...Hang in there!
Catch it, come alive, pass it on.
