Pain is Beauty

Planet Earth and all the wonders of the universe are mesmerizing. Aesthetically amazing! The ability for a rose to break through concrete; the strength of the land to repair itself; and the boldness of the sun after a storm display the beauty that exists within the pain of destruction. Pain is dressed in beauty; and beauty is drenched in strength.

You are loved! Regardless of the circumstance or struggle you are still loved. Jesus loves you and so does the rest of humanity. At times, it seems like our fellow humans lack the emotion of loving others, but the fact of the matter is that every single individual is fighting a battle; emotionally, physically, or even spiritually. Nonetheless, it is still a battle. We attempt to isolate ourselves or mask our pain without realizing that we are all fraying alongside one another. Instead, we should embattle in unity. Overall keep in mind that ‘today you are drawing near for battle against your enemies: let not your heart faint. Do not fear or panic or be in dread of them,  for the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.’ (Deuteronomy 20:3-4) Therefore, you are not alone! You stand with the armies of angels. God has already won war!

Remember, you are not alone in this world. Different languages may exist but we are united by the same composition.

Now allow me to tell you that the beauty that radiates derives from the

mayhems we overcome. That luminesce smile that you posses does not originate from perfection but from the triumphs in our lives. Your smile dresses you in beauty; for you are able to light up the world even when chaos surrounds you. We learn and grow during pains. Do not fear to speak out and tell your story. The girl sitting by you in the bus might be fighting the same struggle, the man who always seems grumpy might be trying to heal, and the kid who is restless might be screaming in silence.

Do not isolate yourself or push others away, instead give your pain a voice so that others may may know that they are not alone. Healing occurs when we treat the wounds not by hiding it.

There is beauty in your journey.
