“Will you face you trials with fear or with faith?” crosses my mind.

I know what it’s like to have trials; what having the worst time of my life is like; how being sad feels; not being able to say more than two words at a time because of being greatly out of breath; the feeling of walking very short distances and yet having my heart beating hard and not being able to catch my breath; feeling like my body is falling apart; thinking, “I’m going to die”; feeling scared.

I also know what it’s like to have peace like a river in my soul and to feel the Lord comfort me and calm my troubled mind. Truly, I choose to face my trials with faith. When feeling sad or afraid I come to myself and my frame of mind is alright after letting scared and sad feelings go.
