If I hadn't

If I hadn't been betrayed, I wouldn't have understood the extent of His forgiveness and love.

If I hadn't lost my mind, I wouldn't have understood the people caught in suffocating darkness.

If I hadn't tried to take my life, I wouldn't have understood the depths despair can reach.

If I hadn't been tossed away by those I held most dear, I wouldn't have understood the pain of rejection and loss.

If I hadn't fought my cancer, I wouldn't have understood the treasure each day holds.

If I hadn't lost my dignity, I wouldn't have understood my need for Him.

"And we know that in ALL things, God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
