Extraordinary

(model credit: Mary Kaitlin)

"What if I was your only source of love? would that be good enough for you?"

"Is it (the pain) worth it, just to know you're in My will?"

"Would you believe that I have a future for you? even if you don't have a future for you?"

These are questions Jesus has been gently prodding me with lately. 

And I can't get away from them.

Someone told me once that "only extraordinary people are given extraordinary challenges."

People with giant callings are given giant trials.

Great men go through great pain,

yet those who endure receive great reward.

I will persevere, for nothing will compare to the end.

I will not be less, do less, or go through less than all that is intended for me.

And I will not let my discomfort, 

my pride,

my pain,

my agony,

hinder my run towards knowing my Jesus' face.

If hardship is what I'm called to, so be it. But don't ever hide Your face from me, Father.
