Experience

We Do Not Truly Understand...


Joy...until we face sorrow.

Faith...until it is tested.

Peace...until faced with conflict.

Trust...until we are betrayed.

Love...until it is lost.

Hope...until confronted with doubts.

Then when faced with these things, we arrive at a place deeper than mental understanding.

It is a place called experience.

Experience then brings knowing......and we come to know joy, faith, peace, trust, love, and hope beyond all doubt.

Then we can share these blessings as the most valuable gifts we have to give.
